I got the "Can't find X includes" error when compi

Hi, all!
I upgraded to Xorg7.
When I compile qterm:
% ./configure --prefix=/usr
...
checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
%

I followed the Xorg7 page in arch wiki then reinstall the packages xproto and libx1. But it doesn't work.

What could I do?

compositeproto 0.3-1
damageproto 1.0.3-1
dmxproto 2.2.2-1
fixesproto 4.0-1
fontcacheproto 0.1.2-1
fontsproto 2.0.2-1
glproto 1.4.5-1
inputproto 1.3.2-1
kbproto 1.0.2-1
printproto 1.0.3-1
randrproto 1.1.2-1
recordproto 1.13.2-1
renderproto 0.9.1-1

Try to reinstall them, I think some of yours got lost during the upgrade due to a pacman bug.

You have pkgconfig installed? also check the config.log about possible missing things.

Yes, I installed pkgconfig.
config.log is quite a long story, I can't find the problem. I uploaded  it here.
