All of a sudden, builds ( xine, dvdauthor) break with:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
but
ldconfig -v | grep Xext

I would look at your ld.so.conf configuration firstly, to confirm
that the X libraries are indeed configured there. If they are, then
this is almost certainly a bug in the software you're trying
to compile. From the errors above though, I would strongly suspect
that your ld.so configuration is hosed.
/etc/ld.so.conf is pretty simple:
cat ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/local/lib
and
ls /etc/ld.so.conf.d
mysql-i386.conf octave-x86_64.conf xorg-x11-i386.conf
mysql-x86_64.conf qt-i386.conf qt-x86_64.conf
xorg-x11-x86_64.conf
cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/xorg-x11-x86_64.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib64
The errors are from autotools configure tests.
I've simplified it further:
cat simple.c
int
main ()
{
return 0;
}
gcc -o test.Xext -lXext simple.c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
but ldconfig does find it:
ldconfig -v | grep Xext
libXext.so.6 -> libXext.so.6.4
libXext.so.6 -> libXext.so.6.4
Now, maybe this is an autotools issue, but I've rebuilt
these src.rpms before without a hitch.

I've got a grease spot on the monitor. I'm sure it's because
mod X is comming :)
