I want to clarify that the protobuf jars enable optional functionality and
are not required (any longer) to build mkgmap - the referenced message from the
mailing list is no longer relevant as the build process was changed shortly
after.  Now the build file will detect that the jars
are not present and simply not build the protobuf format plugin.

Reading protobuf is not particularly useful at the current time as in most
cases
you will be reading files produced by the splitter program which does not
currently write in the protobuf based format yet.

So I think that it is entirely acceptable to build without protobuf support
until such time as the osmprotobuf jars are more easily available.
