How do I build dbus with x11?

I'm getting these error messages when running dbus-monitor:

 dbus-monitor --session
Failed to open connection to session bus: /usr/local/bin/dbus-launch
terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch requested, but
X11 support not compiled in.
Cannot continue.


So I'm assuming I didn't install dbus-x11. Is this package built by
configuring dbus with the --with-x option? Because I can't find the source
package for it anywhere. But I tried using the --with-x=yes flag when
running configure in my dbus source directory, however I ended up with a
configuring that does not build x11.
