Indeed.

Quoting from a similar bugreport:
| There are multiple possibilities for fixing this:
| 1) --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
| 2) (uselessly) build-depend on libxt-dev
| 3) invoke AC_PATH_X with arguments to search for a
| library/header/function you need anyway, instead of the default
| [Xt],[X11/Intrinsic.h],[XtMalloc (0)], e.g.:
| -AC_PATH_X
| +AC_PATH_X([X11],[Xlib.h],[XInitExtension()])

I have not checked libxrender's source code for a correct function to
search for, instead of XtMalloc.
