It's the merger of all the old per-extension protocol headers for Xlib
apps into a single repo, mirroring what xcb has with xcb-proto.

I also can't understand why it would have any effect on libxcb, especially
as it should have nothing that wasn't in the individual protocol repos,
which seems to match the quoted text earlier in this thread:
