So I guess the issue is more "waiting to push fixes" than "waiting to work

there is so much lag between the Apple-branded X11 and the xquartz X11 given
the vast difference in functionality. To an outsider, it looks like the fix
exists but is not being pushed.

How about "exists but hasn't been fully regression tested for release, which is *not* a trivial proposition"? The rules for a macosforge release and an official Apple update are very different.
