Some more thoughts:

- Even if you have the X11 libraries on your system, you may
need to install another package (rpm) in order to _compile_
X applications.  (I don't know about RedHat, but this is how
it works with Debian.)

- If you just want to play freeciv (not development) you could
try a pre-compiled rpm package (see www.freeciv.org, Download, 
RedHat).
