I suppose since all of LV2 is in one tarball now there's no real
potential for name clashes, so you're welcome to it as much as the next
person :)
As long as the pkg-config name is the same as the actual project name,
and it's searchable, it should be fine (don't use the namespace "lv2" or
"LV2" though)
