Comment (by jeremyhu@…):

 It would be rather unfortunate if the xinit port was installed with an
 active startx LaunchAgent but no xorg-server to launch.  This might result
 in a user with $DISPLAY pointing to a "bad" MacPorts X11 instead of a
 working Apple X11.app on SL or Lion.

 I think we should stop providing the LaunchAgent in the xinit port and
 instead provide it in the xorg-server and xorg-server-devel ports.
