but when I try to make x11 applications which require X11-links, I cannot make X11-links since it complains about missing X headers. I have a bunch of .h files in /usr/pkg/include/xorg.
I am not using NetBSD but I believe that XFree86 is still default in NetBSD 4.01.
If I remember documentation from earlier versions of NetBSD that I played with
running X clients on the top of XOrg was a non-trivial thing. Ports system was pre set to compile applications which will be running on the top of XFree86 so lots of manual configuration was needed to use XOrg. Your complaints about X headers look familiar but I have never push much NetBSD so I hope you get better answer.

If you want XOrg on NetBSD you should run 5.0 current. It uses XOrg by default
the same as applications for 5.0.
