I'm guessing that this is trying to compile libxcb 1.1.93 against
xcb-proto-1.4  (which includes patch 52d0702).

Is this something that's supposed to work?  Is there something here to
be worried about?

This wasn't the first patch to add padding into the xcb-proto XML
descriptions, but I don't remember seeing these sorts of errors (but I
don't think they went to this list back then).
