My god.  You've done it.

I couldn't figure out what the heck you were referring to because the 
disc1 contents window had six icons in it: one was the Xcode Tools 
directory and none of the other icons was Optional Installs.mpkg.  So I 
did a search with Finder, and Finder said that the file Optional 
Installs.mpkg was on disc1.  What the?!  Then I expanded the disc1 
contents window, and voila! some other icons magically appeared at the 
bottom.  I don't think the default for that page should be icon view!

For future searchers these are the steps:

1) Slide the "Mac OS X Install Disc1" into your drive.  A window that 
says "Mac OS X Install Disc 1" will pop up showing you the contents of 
the disc.  Drag the window open as big as you can; or up in the menu 
bar, click on View>as List.

2) Click on the file:

Optional Installs.mpkg

It's not inside a directory, so you shouldn't have to go searching 
through any folders.

2) A wizard will lead you through the install.  When you get to the page 
that says:

Custom Install on "Macintosh HD(or whatever destination you chose on the 
previous page)"

...click on the arrow to the left of Applications to reveal a list of 
choices.

3) Check X11 and click the Install button.
