Comment(by sarah.bearse@…):

 Here is the output when opening directly from xterm:

 $ /opt/local/bin/gimp

 Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".
 Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".
 Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".
 Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".


 I believe that I have the various xorg-* files installed ... but, I did
 not do it manually.
 $locate xorg

 yields a ton of files in /opt/local/var/macports/sources | distfiles |
 receipts.

 I am starting to think that the issue is due to an X11 bug.  I have
 noticed that xterm pretty consistently crashes whether GIMP is running or
 not.  I filed a plea for help in the Apple forum.  I have tried to
 uninstall v1.1.3, reinstall v1.0 and update back up to v1.1.3, there has
 been no change in behavior.
