Comment:

 > I have a feeling this has to do with my $DISPLAY variable, which was
 switched to XQuartz instead of the xorg that I had previously been using,
 and which uninstalling and reinstalling Macports has not fixed.

 It's configured to launch XQuartz, from http://xquartz.macosforge.org ...
 that's XQuartz.app

 I'm not sure what you mean by "instead of the xorg that I had previously
 been using"

 It sounds like you probably trashed things you shouldn't've.

 Please ask for help on the #xquartz IRC channel or x11-users mailing list.
