I've built awesome, and tried to run it, but it wouldn't draw anything
on the screen.  Perhaps this was the cause?

Examining the binary...

blizinski at cabbage ~ $ /usr/ccs/bin/dump -Lv /opt/csw/bin/awesome | grep libX11
[2]     NEEDED          libX11.so.6

The binary itself only links against libX11.so.6.  One of the
dependencies must be pulling libX11.so.4 in.

$ for l in $(ldd -r /opt/csw/bin/awesome | awk '{print $3}'); do if [
"$(ldd -r $l | grep libX11.so.4)" ]; then echo $l ; fi; done
/opt/csw/lib/libImlib2.so.1
/usr/lib/libXext.so.0

libImlib2.so.1 belongs to CSWimlib2.  And libXext...

$ for l in $(ldd -r /opt/csw/bin/awesome | awk '{print $3}'); do if [
"$(ldd -r $l | grep libXext)" ]; then echo $l ; fi; done
/opt/csw/lib/libImlib2.so.1
/usr/lib/libX11.so.4

...is also needed by CSWimlib2.

It seems like liking CSWimlib2 against CSW X11 would remove the
linking against two versions of libX11.

Looking at the build description:

#EXTRA_INC = $(prefix)/X11/include
#EXTRA_LIB = $(prefix)/X11/lib
#EXTRA_PKG_CONFIG_DIRS = $(prefix)/X11/lib

BUILD64 = 1
CONFIGURE_ARGS = $(DIRPATHS)
#CONFIGURE_ARGS += --x-include=$(prefix)/X11/include
#CONFIGURE_ARGS += --x-libraries=$(abspath $(prefix)/X11/lib/$(MM_LIBDIR))

Dago, it seems like you've explored this before.  Was there a problem
with linking imlib2 against CSW X11?
