This link shows what is the problem with SW development, not with X . The same thing is done also in QT or GTK. Why a program written for QT4 cannot compile in QT5 ? Why every library release must be incompatible with the predecessor ? I was able to compile and run X10 programs in X11. Why do i need to have on my linux system more than one version of a library ? Will Wayland fix that, because from this article I see that it is more or less in the same mess of incompatible libraries ?
