I'll dig a little deeper to see why, but the x include is only shown in configure. What I dont' get is why it's not used anywhere else in the source tree. It's just a check that uses <X11/Intrinsic.h> to find the headers. The same check later defines X_DISPLAY_MISSING if it hasn't found Intrinsic.h, neither of which are used anywhere else in the source tree. :-/ Later still, if not defined, then a check is made for libICE. "-I/usr/include/X11" eventually makes it into X_CLFAGS which is never used other than being set. I say no on the optional dep...AFAICT, the end result is that it'll check for it, but do nothing with it.
