for some reason
http://git.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/meta-openembedded/commit/?id=ceb4a1deaabe81e0acaf9dd179d08736f598203e
is missing .bbappend part..

but you can apply this patch to oe-core instead..
http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/9871/

having libxcb-native directly in oe-core will help recipes-graphics
maintainer to copy new libx11 from meta-oe to oe-core.
