You must be linking with the -Bstatic flag. Try linking without this
flag or even with the -Bdynamic flag. This way you should be able
to use the shared libraries for X. Unless, of course, you don't have
any shared libraries for X.

In any case, Sun's OpenWindows X implementation comes with these shared libs.

Best regards,
Ben
