No, I'm afraid not. For now, you can edit your configuration file (for
example, "$NCARG/config/LINUX" if you're on a Linux system), and
change or add the line:

#define ArchRecLibSearch -L/usr/X11R6/lib

as appropriate. However, if the libraries are already in /usr/lib,
then you shouldn't need this line at all, as most compilers will look
in /usr/lib. Same for the ArchRecIncSearch line.

If you do modify your configuration file, you will need to start
the build from scratch, just to be safe (i.e. run "make Everything"
again).
