Boy, you're busy :-)

No, you don't need the X sources, but you do need the header files and
libs (which are loaded if you choose the right install option).  You may
also need to make a symbolic link from /usr/include/X11 to
/usr/X11R6/include - I can't remember the details for xv, but several
of the X ports use the old directory convention, and once it's set up,
you don't notice.

You might also need to link /usr/lib/X11 to /usr/X11R6/lib, for linking.
