 Replying to [comment:31 jjstickel@…]:
 > I, too, am experiencing this problem on OS X 10.4.11.  Until this gets
 resolved "correctly", is there a recommended workaround?  How about
 installing all of xorg from macports?

 That is yet another possibility, but if you do that, you'll then need to
 rebuild everything that is linking against /usr/X11R6/lib/* so it links
 against the macports libs instead...

 I'm testing out a rather dirty bash script that will go through
 /opt/local/bin and /opt/local/lib and do install_name_tool on the binaries
 there to make them all use the available macports X11 libs... but it's
 quite hackish at the moment.  I'll post it here after doing some more
 testing...
