[Xcb] xorg - xcb-util build error

No, you don't need to build utils; comment it out in the
build script or JHBuild instructions.

The bug you're seeing may relate to the use of a make
utility that doesn't support vpath---there's a Bugzilla bug
on this.  I have a fix to that Makefile "almost committed",
and will try to get to it as soon as possible.
