I'm not convinced this is a bug in xutils-dev.  Changing 9menu's
Imakefile to:

       INCLUDES = -I$(TOP)
        DEPLIBS = $(DEPXLIBONLY)
LOCAL_LIBRARIES = $(XLIBONLY)
        DEFINES = -DSHAPE #-DDEBUG -DDEBUG_EV
           SRCS = 9menu.c
           OBJS = 9menu.o

ComplexProgramTarget(9menu)

makes it not need libXext.
