* Sorry. I don't have X installed yet. I read something in a message
* earlier today saying that tk41 was required to build some part of
* XFree86 3.3. I saw that theparticular header file, Xlib.h is in
* the work/tk4.1/xlib/X11 directory, so I figured that it should be
* picked up from there. I couldn't figure out how to getthe
* Makefile.in pickup that change without overwriting the @XINCLUDES@
* part of the Makefile.in and I figured that that was an important
* part. Sorry for not being more clear. Also I don't have a lot of
* experience with X, or configure. At least not much below the normal
* user level.
I see. That's interesting, I didn't know that tk41 comes with
Xlib.h. But even with the header, you wouldn't be able to compile it
without X installed, as

(now please don't come back telling me you found libX11.a lying around
in your tk41 dir :)
I'm afraid you have sort of a chicken and egg problem here. If you
want to do everything by ports, you will need to build X first
(without XF86Setup), then tk41, then X again (with XF86Setup).
Of course you can use packages here and there to avoid building things
twice, or build X piece-wise.
