Can buildbots open a window?

[Russell Jones]

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46842 says

" Xvfb was deprecated around a decade ago [...] You should be able to 
just use xinit with the dummy driver. Both are installed with the 
XQuartz package but don't have ports in MacPorts yet. I suggest you give 
that a try instead of using xvfb-run."

Does XQuartz get installed on the buildbots?
