The version of NCAR Graphics you downloaded was built with the GNU
compilers, and when this was done, certain scripts were created and
variables were set based on this.
If you look bin: $NCARG_ROOT/bin you'll find these scripts. 'ncargex'
and 'ncargf77' are scripts, and you can change variables within those
scripts. In 'ncargf77' you'll find where to change things from the
defaults (in this case, GNU g77) to what you desire (ifort).

Here, the loader is saying it cannot find the library libX11.{a,so} in the
list of library paths ('-L...') that you've provided in which to search.
The list of library search directories was set at 'Configure' time for
NCAR Graphics; I admit to being surprised that /usr/X11R6/lib isn't on
your host. If it's not, you'll have to determine where the X libraries
are loaded, and modify the script accordingly.
