Actually, I think DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS is exactly what Bryce wants
to use for this.

Bryce has Xwayland installed in a non-standard location so as to not
interfere with his system binaries, so we don't want anything in
Makefile.am to be specific to his installation anyway.

DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS=--with-xserver-path=/wherever/it/is/Xwayland
make distcheck

should make the test pass just fine, and I think it's reasonable to
expect that without any good way to detect Xwayland's location.

FWIW, I still think the patch that started this thread is worthwhile,
though.  :)
