Hmmm ... in SL4 xorg-x11-devel provided XFree86-devel so it just 
installed fine.
But now in SL5, there isn't an xorg-x11-devel

# yum list "xorg*devel*"
xorg-x11-proto-devel.x86_64              7.1-9.fc6
xorg-x11-xtrans-devel.x86_64             1.0.1-1.1.fc6
xorg-x11-drv-i810-devel.x86_64           1.6.5-9.2.el5
xorg-x11-drv-i810-devel.i386             1.6.5-9.2.el5
xorg-x11-drv-via-devel.x86_64            0.2.1-9
xorg-x11-drv-via-devel.i386              0.2.1-9

I guess I could just take out the dependancy completly and let rpm 
itself figure out what it needs.
