I don't think splitting into two ports will be a good idea. Instead I
recommend using the PYTHON knob to install python stuff if user requires
it.

Yes, thats a challenging task. If more people require this, then I can
add a PYTHON option to the xcb-proto to build/skip python related stuff in
xcb-proto package.
