I would guess you haven't installed the X11 development rpms.
The includes are normally in /usr/X11R6/include.
You probably want the XFree86-devel RPM.
You can check if it's installed like this:

	rpm -qa | grep XFree86-devel

I found the name by going:

	rpm -qa | grep XFree

on a RedHat box (it's not RH8, so I can't tell you the exact version number).
