They are.  They are the X11 Toolkit and Athena Widget Set libraries.
(Despite of this, run ldd(1) -- there will be more libraries missing,
at least libX.so.6.0, the basic Xlib.)

I assume Hylafax links it to display an incoming Fax, and Emacs
includes an X11 user interface.  This is not required (i.e., you can
also build an Emacs without it), but the default distribution did it
this way.
