Creating the right pangox.alias is a packaging problem. 
It is not intended that it should behave right on make install
out of the box. (This is why the file is in pango/examples)

We could add support for multiple different example config
files, but this wouldn't be consistent with what we do elsewhere
for the GTK+ libraries.
