I'll try the pkg_search_module( APR apr-1 ) approach and see if that works as well.
Write an if-else test for the apr pc file. If apr-1.0 was hard coded then some distros must install apr that way. So both tests must occur.

I'm against agressive searching. Is much easier to fix a compilation failure than to hunt strange bugs generated by a wrong detection.
So, my advice is to use pkgconfig system when is possible.
