Note that X is in /usr/X11R6, not /usr/X11, so your link option shoudl
read -L/usr/X11R6/lib.

You need -I/usr/X11R6/include as well.  -I is for headers and is used
during the compile step, -L is for libraries and is used during the
link step.  Your commandline is a direct source-to-executable command,
so it requires both.
