For a cursory look, if you have set:

X11_TYPE=native

rebuilding x11-links will pick the right references. In my case, what
was "missing" was only missing in my installed version of x11-links but
all the dependencies were correct in x11-links sources and rebuilding
and reinstalling fixed the puzzling behavior.

At least, start by this. If there are still missing things, this does
probably mean that something has to be added to x11-links.
