Makefile will be overwritten by running configure. In theory, configure is only run if the top-level Makefile isn't present, but my experience suggests that that test isn't reliable. I should have told you to edit Makefile.in, which is the input file which configure uses to create Makefile. Sorry 'bout that.

Perhaps there's something wrong with your pygobject installation that's causing h2defs.py to not work right. Have you tried running it manually from a jhbuild shell?
