Odd behviour with System Preferences and X11

I've got two Mac OS X boxes, a Dual G5 PowerMac and a second gen
MacBook, both running 10.5.3, both with the latest X11 from macosforge.

On the Macbook, if X11 is the active app, I cannot launch System
Preferences, either from the apple menu or the command line (in an
xterm).  If I try and start the binary directly, I get:

$ /Applications/System\ Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System\ Preferences 2008-06-06 09:19:35.247 X11[7967:10b] Unable to find class: X11Application, exiting

If I click on any other app, or launch it from a Finder window, System
Preferences comes up fine.

Only reason I'm posting about it here is because it seems that X11 is
somehow misconfigured or something on the Macbook.  It all works fine on
the G5.
