Having X11 libraries installed means that programs that are already
compiled can run.  Same for Linux or Windows libraries.

What you need is the development packages installed, which gives you
the C header files (*.h files).  With these the compiler can compile
new code to use the libraries.

I don't run Macs so I can't help you with specifics.  Sorry!
