Note that x11app.diff will not apply cleanly unless you are using the top of
the tree.

Successfully built using your instructions. The click through to an X
window appears to have reverted to its original X11.app form, and
interleaved X and Aqua windows are possible in rootless mode. I discovered
two mouse-related problems and a few preference problems with the
successfully built X11.app:
1. The mouse's scroll-button no longer works when X11.app / quartz-wm is
used, but it still works for XDarwin.app with quartz-wm.
2. X11.app does not appear to remember settings for preferences between
sessions. For example, it forgets the system beep setting and the
emulate three-button mouse setting. XDarwin.app remembers its prefs.
`defaults read com.apple.x11' shows the settings correctly, but X11.app
does not appear to read those values in each time. The beeps are always
off, and the mouse emulation is always on--reverse of how I have it set.
3. If you have wm_ffm=1 (focus-follows-mouse) when you first create the
X11.app, and it is working as expected, it still works in the new
X11.app; however if you issue the command
`defaults write com.apple.x11 wm_ffm 0'
at anytime in the new server, then you cannot get focus-follows-mouse
back on no matter what. It appears that X11.app is storing prefs
somewhere other that com.apple.x11.plist, but where?
