for some reason, "make distcheck" fails when the build is configured
with --disable-protoc. i haven't been able to track down the root cause
(it appears the build is trying to generate the generated pb-c files for
the test cases, but the test cases should be disabled when
--disable-protoc is specified). so, remove the --disable-protoc option.
libprotobuf-c should always be tested as part of a build, and this can't
be done unless protoc-c is built. this also reduces the number of build
combinations that need to be tested.
