libXext eludes linker, mod X issue?

[sean <seandarcy2@xxxxxxxxx>]

xorg-x11-6.8.2-58 on amd64.

All of a sudden, builds ( xine, dvdauthor) break with:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext

but

ldconfig -v | grep Xext
        libXext.so.6 -> libXext.so.6.4
        libXext.so.6 -> libXext.so.6.4

locate libXext
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6.4
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.a
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.so
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.so.6
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.so.6.4

Adding LDFLAGS seems to fix this, but why is the linker 
suddenly unable to find -lXext on its own? Does it know 
xorg-x11-devel is going?
