I think that what I said in email was maybe confusing. I meant this patch to be a starting point for you and not the solution. The issue is that the -x11 variant does build, but it still links against X11 libraries as can be seen by using otool -L.

It may be the case that this linkage is opportunistic (ie, it only links them if you have them installed but still builds correctly if they are not installed). Such opportunistic linkage is not legal and needs to be fixed before we can commit a change like this.

OK, thanks for explaining this in detail, also in your ML response.

So, I guess this needs to get discussed with upstream then?
