Make sure there's a -L/usr/X11R6/lib entry in the gcc args.

I'll answer this one several times: 

-direct answer:
  Add -L/usr/X11R6/lib to the gcc commandline when linking (the last
  stage)

-somewhat more complete answer:
  Most X programmes come with an Imakefile, that is used to generate
  a Makefile that is tailored to the local system with the xmkmf command,
  that knows excactly where all libraries/headerfiles/whatever are
  on the local system. Your best bet is to check if your app
  has an Imakefile, and if it does, run xmkmf. This
  (on any Debian system, anyway) will generate an Makefile that
  knows correctly where the X libs are.

-YetAnotherAnswer:
  Doesn't debian have an X-Board package (GNU something?).
  In that case, simply get the xboard files from your debian mirror,
  run dpkg-source -x xboard*.dsc, cd to the sourcedir, and run
  ./debian/rules build. This _should_ do everything correctly,
  and if not, file a bug report against the Xboard pacakge.
