 libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib.  The problem is that the original reporter's
 libXrandr.la referenced libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib.  After installing
 X11-2.3.1, you'll notice that libXrandr.la refers to the correct dylib.

 Yes, it is.

 Not exactly.  It is updated with X11 from http://xquartz.macosforge.org,
 but it is not updated with OSX Software Update (which is what updated the
 lib).

 the previous minor version of the library. And doing so with only the
 limited dependencies that MP offers.

 No... I'm not even sure what you mean by this last sentence.
