Version 3 has some significant enhancements over version 2.  I
would be surprised if the xfig binary you finally build works.

Hmmm, you successfully commented out many of the calls to the X-window
libraries.  I would be surprised if your binary works.  This suggests
that the path to the X11R[56] libraries is set up correctly.  

(Stupid question alert)  You do have Xfree86 or Xinside installed?

xfig is in the ports collection.  I suggest that you grab either the
pre-compile package or the port itself.  Note: you'll also need the latest
version of transfig.
