This output comes from kdebase/nsplugins/CMakeLists.txt:

if (X11_Xt_LIB)
 ...
else (X11_Xt_LIB)

  message(STATUS "libXt not found - browser plugin support disabled")

endif (X11_Xt_LIB)

The same could be checked in workspace/kdesktop/lock/lockprocess.cpp too.

I don't know in which way it is used there, so I don't know whether it's 
optional there or absolutely required.
Somebody else (Ossi ?) probably knows better.
