I was attempting to install XQuartz 2.7.2 on a headless Mac Mini Server.
Some of the pop-up windows only displayed partially during the
installation.

I believe this should be fixed with 2.7.3. If you are installing with the CLI, you won't get the dialog box.

This evening I closed all running applications and installed the package
a second time. This time all of the pop-up windows were displayed
including the window that informs you to log out and log back in. DISPLAY
is now defined in my environment.

What do you mean "all"?  There is only one.

The three active applications on the first install were Safari, Server,
and Terminal. Of these, I suspect that Server may have been the
application causing problems with the first install attempt.

I doubt it ... unless Server.app was installing SUs which were blocking the package from installing ...
