 I have just upgraded MacPorts (on OSX 10.11),

 The following installed ports are outdated:

 but xorg-server-1.17.2_0 does not seem to work.


 My apps work with xorg-server-1.16.4_1 but not with the new. These apps
 open a graphics window in which they draw something and the X11 icon
 appears in the Dock. With 1.17.2_0 nothing happens. The apps hang. No X11
 in the Dock

 The same occurs also with other MacPorts applications. For example:


 {{{
 $ gv foo.ps &
 [1] 25869
 }}}

 and it hangs without X11 in the Dock.
