You should have this discussion on xorg-devel since this is not an issue specific to XQuartz.
XQueryPointer is not something that you should be doing in your event handling. It does not introspect the event you were given. It sends a request to the server to determine what the current state of the pointer is, and it is expected that this will often be inconsistent with what you see in the event because you may have unprocessed events in your event stream.
