What do you mean by "link kit"?

You should look at the source RPMs of XFree - you may take from there
the configuration files for X itself and from the RPM spec file the
exact sequence of building commands.

General thought: make sure that you have a *lot* of free disk space
when you compile X - I'm confident that at least 200M is required
(maybe more).
