As far as I'm aware, it's not a hard failure.

Building without Xlib should work automatically.  It works for me.

This combination should work; apitrace and egltrace.so should be built; this
is how apitrace is built for Android (although there are some Android-specific
bits in the build machinery, but they are not relevant to this issue).

I don't know what went wrong in your case since you didn't show your build
logs.
