swift-corelibs-foundation does not use ninja. I would use the build-script line from the bots. That way you know you are doing the right thing.

Specifically:

URL: https://ci.swift.org/job/oss-swift-incremental-RA-linux-ubuntu-16_04/2413/consoleFull

Preset: buildbot_incremental_linux

If that does not work on your system, then something is misconfigured.

Also I wouldn't use --clone-with-ssh it is unnecessary.
