Most of us use autoconf to build Mesa (it annoyingly has three different
build systems).  You might try something along the lines of:
$ ./configure --disable-glut --enable-xcb --disable-glu --disable-glw
--with-gallium-drivers='' --with-dri-drivers=swrast,i915 --enable-debug
$ make

That's a relatively new addition...you'll need to install glproto from
git as well: git://git.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/proto/glproto

No, for some reason the channel is just set up strangely.  You'll need
to register with NickServ on Freenode and identify...otherwise it says
you are 'banned' and won't let you do anything.  It's very odd.
