I don't know if this is the same issue I had, but when I upgraded
(in-place) from Mac OS 10.8 to 10.9 I had to reinstall Xquartz.  The
system did prompt for such but the automated installation process did
not work for me for some reason or another (I don't quite remember
what was it) so I ended up re-downloading from the usual
<https://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing> and installing the package
thus obtained.  Everything has been working as expected ever after.
It may be worth trying such a reinstall.

Best regards,
Stefan
