Comment(by MacSlow):

 A .pc file (generated from the libxapian build) would be just the thing
 needed. Here's an example (taken from zlib.pc):

   prefix=/usr
   exec_prefix=${prefix}
   libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
   includedir=${prefix}/include

   Name: zlib
   Description: zlib compression library
   Version: 1.2.3.4

   Requires:
   Libs: -L${libdir} -lz
   Cflags: -I${includedir}

 With that the XO_LIB_XAPIAN-macro would not be needed afaik.
