I am running the "Apple suppoted" older version on High Sierrs
XQuartz 2.7.11 (xorg-server 1.18.4)
Apart from a few hiccups here and there, it works. For instance, after
I turn the TV on or off and the Mac insists on flashing the screens
multiple times, the Xterm windows always end up on top.
Starting X11 after a crash (window server freezes often on a Mac Pro
2013, I force the crash by disconnecting TV from HDMI port), it can take
a while after clicking on the XQuartz icon before the first terminal
window appears.

Sometimes your login does stuff that worked in previous version but not
in current one. Experienced that during one upgrade years ago when my
.xinitrc did stuff thyat should no longer be done (like calling the
xinitrc binary to start the window manager).
Rename all your . files that are related to x in yoru login and see if
it starts normally, then rename each back one at a time to see which one
can cause the startup to fail.
