Jeremy,
Thanks for your comment. My immediate reaction was "no, that's
not the problem; I have tried setting and unsetting
DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH in all possible permuations."
But then I noticed that you start with
"/Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin". I
had always stated with the script
"/Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app/Contents/MacOS/X11" (or from
the XQuarz.app in Applications, which, I believe runs that
script.)
So I thought, I'll try directly the binary X11.bin -- and that
works! AND ONLY if I have DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH unset. That is,
there is something in the X11 script (it's rather opaque to me)
that mucks up the subsequent start of X11.bin. I use C-shell by
default, but the situation is analogous in bash.
I can live with that solution.

Running OSX 10.10.5, and with Xquartz 2.7.7, 2.7.8, or 2.7.9beta, I get the error message that /usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib cannot be loaded because it is v.17, and v. 19 id required. Details of the error messages are pasted below.
That would seem a straightforward problem, except that `otool -L` in fact reports that that lib is v.19 (also documented below.) Actually, a search for libfreetype.6.dylib on my computer shows several instances, associated with individual software packages, I have tried all of these which allege to be v.19 -- to no avail.
The problem persists regardless of my DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH env-setting (including none.)
I suspect that it is set in your .bashrc or .profile, so you unset it at the prompt, and then it gets reset in X11 when spawning X11.bin.
I suspect if you did the following, it would work:
$ unset DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ ./X11.bin
To be a bit more clear here, the X11 file is a shell script which re-execs X11.bin in a login environment, so if your init scripts set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, it'll be re-added even though you unset it in the environment from which you executed X11.
Don't set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH!
Can anyone explain to me the discrepancy between the Xquartz error message and the otool output? Or, more usefully, can anyone point me to a libfreetype.6.dylib that will work with current versions of Xquartz?
The one that comes with it works great. Don't set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH globally and expect things to work.

Thanks,
