I don't suppose this further data point somehow arrives at adequately convincing evidence of what you already suspect, if not know, which is that copying code to introduce a config change the application really should be able to handle anyway is broken, even if it isn't necessarily a bug (or *sigh* going to be fixed)?
What config change are you trying to make that you suspect should be handled in XQuartz.app directly? You want to run more than one server, right? XQuartz.app currently supports only one X11 server. Supporting more than one server in the same process is not likely something that will change soon (if ever).

What is the root problem that you are trying to solve?

I don't think there have been false starts, more like potholes along the road due to difference in models, protocols, etc. _______________________________________________
