At least for gtk based applications, this is a result of a gtk v. Apple X11 configuration conflict that's detailed here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304930

I guess it's the time of ugly hacks again, like in the beginning of Apple's X11 adventure. The following works for me:
Create a one-line Apple script with ScriptEditor, containing the line


do shell script "/Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11 +kb"

Compile, save as application bundle, for example under the name X11kb.app, and then double-click this one instead of the original X11.app.
