Thanks, sorry .cshrc was a typo, should have been .xinitrc. Haven't tried the default shell.. Anyway my workaround is working for me. Interesting that you don't see the problem, however. Thanks for that feedback. Other people have responded saying they do. I wonder as you say if it is a shell issue.
My shell is /bin/zsh, fwiw. Terminal.app doesn't exit all by itself, only the occasional xterm.
This is something reproducible on my system, with XQuartz 2.3.1 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple17) and the following defaults

1- launch X11 from the dock: an xterm appears since I have "app_to_run" = "/usr/X11/bin/xterm"; 2- open a second xterm with cmd-N (set to "xterm" in the menu) 3- close the second xterm, and the first one disappears (with eventual child windows, i.e. like emacs).

If I open the second xterm by typing the command in the first xterm, and the close it, the first remains...

I use bash & have no .xinitrc in my $HOME
