xcb-util fails to build with srcdir != builddir.  This breaks "make distcheck".

I've removed the GNU make dependencies in atom/Makefile.am.  Now I'll think hard
about the right way to fix the actual bug reported here.

I've just committed a couple of fixes. `make distcheck` now works for me in util.
