There's definitively something that's not linked correctly (or 
not linked as DMD tells ld to do). Today I've tried again. This 
time cairo was ok but I had to add the x11 sources to the "final" 
static library otherwise an application couldn't be compiled.

An attempt to reproduce the scheme compiles fine:

============================script================================

if [ ! -d "X11" ]; then
	git clone https://github.com/nomad-software/x11.git
fi
cd x11
dub build --build=release --compiler=ldc2
cd ..

# in the IRL case I have 3 other sub static libraries.
# used by the "final" static library.
# in the IRL case for this step I have to add all the X11 d 
sources...
ldmd2 lib.d x11/libx11.a \
-Ix11/source -lib

# ...otherwise the final app doesn't compile during this last 
step.
ldmd2 bug.d lib.a x11/libx11.a \
-Ix11/source -L-lX11

============================lib.d==================================
module lib;

import x11.Xlib;

void foo()
{
     // in the IRL case, error begins when using these 3 X11 
function
     auto display = XOpenDisplay(null);
     auto screen = DefaultScreen(display);
     auto visual = DefaultVisual(display, screen);
}

============================bug.d==================================
module bug;

import lib;

void main()
{
     foo();
}
===================================================================

I'd like to help with a good bug report but I cant manage to 
reproduce the issue, sorry.
