Xquartz 2.5.0

I can start Xquartz 2.5.0 and open Gimp 2.8, but then it crashes on text
editing

xterm:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server
"/tmp/launch-dzlStO/org.macosforge.xquartz:0"

. All regular X11 MacPorts apps won't start from the command line. Still
wondering how I can either get 2.5.0 be the default MacPorts / X11 apps...
