 I believe that is why mine works and yours does not.

 Right. libX11 needs libxcb. When you link with dynamic libraries, that's
 taken care of for you. You link with libX11.dylib, libX11.dylib links with
 libxcb.dylib, and all the symbols are there. But when you link with a
 static library libX11.a, you must also explicitly link with all the
 libraries libX11.a requires, such as libxcb.a.

 But we don't want to use the static library. We want to use the dynamic
 library. We need to figure out why your build chose to use the static
 library. Can you attach the meson log file?
