Ok, as discussed on irc there are two criteria for re-adding this package:
1) We've completed the xlibs-dev transition without it. This serves as a
forcing device for people to update their build-deps properly
2) Adding a lintian check for build-dep or dep on x-window-system-dev.
This should help prevent this problem in the future.
I'll also add a note in the package description that this package is meant
entirely for users and not for packages to depend or build-depend on.

I've thought about that, but people are build-depending on it right now,
and we need to essentially force people not to do so. I'll probably add it
back in once the current slate of xlibs-dev bugs is resolved properly.
Sound reasonable?

Like x-window-system{,-core} and unlike xlibs-dev, x-window-system-dev
is a metapackage for the benefit of Debian users, not for package
Build-Depends. It exists so people can say "I want every X -dev and
-dbg package" without listing them all. Please don't remove it.
