The reason why we distribute the generated C source and header files in
the vala tarball is to avoid that you need valac to build valac. That is
not really necessary for vapigen and vala-gen-project as they could use
the just built valac. We should probably change this in the build
system.

This probably won't work if valac isn't already installed, e.g. on the
build server. It should work when doing something like
make VALAC=$PWD/compiler/valac
