I would like to confirm that running this with MacTeX leads to the
correct result and running it with xelatex from MacPorts leads to the
same error (I'm using 10.7).

[1] (./test.aux) )
(see the transcript file for additional information)
Error 6 (driver return code) generating output;
file test.pdf may not be valid.
Transcript written on test.log.

This is the backtrace (it would help to reinstall texlive and keep
debug symbols on):

#0  0x00007fff8fc1482a in __kill ()
#1  0x00007fff88513b6c in __abort ()

#7  0x00000001000187a5 in dvi_do_page ()
#8  0x000000010001c1f0 in main ()

This reminds me on https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39334 even though
I'm not claiming that it is necessarily the same issue. But XeTeX uses
(almost) the same backend and if there are issues with dvipdfmx, it's
not strange to see (the same) buggy behaviour in xdvipdfmx.
