Very interesting!  I just looked on one of my stable boxes and sure
enough

"allan" is amd64
allan ~ # equery f xcb-util | grep atom
/usr/include/xcb/xcb_atom.h
/usr/lib64/libxcb-atom.a
/usr/lib64/libxcb-atom.la
/usr/lib64/libxcb-atom.so
/usr/lib64/libxcb-atom.so.1
/usr/lib64/libxcb-atom.so.1.0.0
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/xcb-atom.pc

"ajglap" is ~amd64
ajglap lib64 # equery f xcb-util | grep atom
/usr/include/xcb/xcb_atom.h
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/xcb-atom.pc

so xcb-util-0.3.6  has the files but -0.3.8 (testing) does not.

This has opened a new lead, which I am now pursuing (bug 366227).
I will report back what I find.
