As i use a stripped down box for compiling different packages i don't need an X server on that machine, but i need the X11 libraries and headers (located in the XFree86-libs and XFree86-devel). So, at least to my eyes, the fact that XFree86-devel is dependant on XFree86 is a bug, it should only be dependant on XFree86-libs.
