Comment (by agtebo@…):

 I understand that I shouldn't mess around with things manually, but
 installing xorg-server is automatically setting $DISPLAY to their server,
 even when I disable their LaunchAgent as per the FAQ. All I'd really like
 to do is have my $DISPLAY to be the Macports version of X11 since the
 other important piece of software I'm using is on Macports, but this seems
 to get lost somewhere. I can't seem to get LaunchAgent to use the Macports
 server, although it will load. Logging out and then back in reverts it
 back to the XQuartz server. Thanks.
