As far as I know, these packages are there because of the USE flags. If 
you don't intend to install X on this machine at the future, you can edit 
your /etc/make.conf and add the "-X" USE flag. If you do intend to or you 
have it already installed, then I'd recommend to leave the "X" flag in, 
and compile it while emerging system -- I'm not really sure that one of 
the system packages doesn't have some nice X-related features which will 
left out this way. You'll still have to upgrade X at the next emerge 
world, right ? :)
