Just ignore this if I'm off base but: PATH or LIBRARY_PATH? If your
system is like the one H_TeXMeX_H found a solution for (in the thread

LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib ./configure

Don't have a modern Slackware box on hand to check, but gcc definitely
does not search the X11R6 directories by default.
