(Why are you using .el6 packages on rhel7?
Xaw3d is in epel7.)

Anyway, I see that Emacs's configure (basically) only uses Xaw3d with the
Lucid toolkit. Ie you'll have to use --with-x-toolkit=lucid if you want Xaw3d.

ImageMagick-devel is in the standard yum repo for me, so no hassle.

I can assure you it has never been possible to compile eg ImageMagick
support without the header files that the development package provides.
