You only need Python to compile; you do not need it to run libxcb.
Feel free to remove python when you are done, or cross-compile
yes - well
i am afraid and don't like snakes. i downloaded libX 1.3.2
i really hope you get rid of such dependency to something that may or
may not be in one's system = keep to basics

Python isn't my favourite language either, but it's much better
I know I'm biased, but Python is generally available on systems. RPM-based
systems and Gentoo require it, and most other distros need it in their base
layout. (Slack might be the exception here.)
I'm deeply sorry that you don't like Python, but it's not a dependency
anybody feels like working
yes - i'm sure you know what you are doing and also are familiar with
main stream systems
it just so happens that i'm really aschetic and am now building
environment for Lemote Fuloong 2F
my distributions have been like early Slackware ( beginning from
kernel 1.2.13 ), later Core-Linux

You appear to be roughing it for some reason. Since the normal pieces of
advice aren't things you want to hear, maybe this will help: You can disable
Tk support when building Python. You can also exclude XCB by building an
Xlib from the 1.3 series instead of 1.4.
