After all these discussions I remmeber better what I went through
building libepoxy in meta-qt5-extra.
So my first suggestion is back - with the patches in meta-qt5-extra I
have managed to build libepoxy in x-less environments and without
depending on util-macros.

Patch [1]: util-macros no more required in DEPENDS
Patch [2]: allow build for x-less environments

I don't have time to prepare patches, but maybe somebody wants to take a look.

Ahh before I forget: libepoxy should inherit pythonnative - all source
file creation is done by pythonscripts.
