No.  
What you said is how to detect correct X11_PATH on "Building",
but what I want to say is it fails on "Executing".

According to NetBSD ELF FAQ,
the real solution is to modify the Makefile to using the linker (ld)
with -R as follows.  (man cc and man ld)
% cc -o ftview -L${X11_PATH} -Wl,-R${X11_PATH} -lX11 ....

But I don't know how to fix with GNU libtool.
(use --rpath?)
