I've finally got this working - the SDL FAQ page sort of identifies the cause; the xorg dev files have to be installed before building SDL otherwise you end up with a 'non-x' version (not sure what you'd do with that!). I built SDL first and then tried installing the missing x development files.
Yes, the development files aren't going to help you if you've already built the project! They need to be available for the compile & link process.
