Sounds just like what I have at my work. I build and install into my
home directory my own gvim, with gtk and x11 libraries built from
scratch. Here's my build script
https://github.com/infnty/configs/raw/master/bsd/survival-kit.py, you
may find it useful if you speak python.
There's a lot of useful information about building these libraries and
their dependencies on LFS project site -
