I was one of the people having problems starting X due to my DISPLAY

finally realized that I was setting it in ~/MacOSX/environment.plist.

I think I was doing that because it got me a DISPLAY in terminal, but
I honestly don't remember.  Removing it, logging out, and logging in
again allowed X to work normally.  (if you can consider the strange
launchd behavior normall..)

Where by "strange" you mean "carefully designed and improved", right?
