I am dynamically linking.

This is based on stock modular Xorg libraries.

This is what I was considering first.

It seems that the AIX ld can actually do recursive linkage if properly
asked to, but it does seem like libtool doesn't support that. Given that
libtool has a number of major issues on AIX, this is not surprisingly.

It still remains a valid question whether modular Xorg wants to do (c)
anyway as it currently doesn't do that.
