For some reason, your X11 header files aren't being found.  So, you probably
need to tell configure to include your X includes directory, like so:

host:~> configure --x-includes="<my_x_includes_directory>"

You can do a configure --help to see what other params are supported (i.e.
if you also have problems with not finding the gtk libraries).
So if Xlocale.h, etc. are in /usr/X11R6/include/X11, use "/usr/X11R6/include"
as your <my_x_includes_directory>.  Although, I've only had to do this because
my X header files are in a non-standard place.  I thought if everything was
vanilla about your X install, that configure would find things without
explicit params to configure, but I could very well be wrong.

Anyway, hope this helps.
