Ok, found the problem. I recently cleared out the database OS X uses for "Open with" because it was getting cluttered with literally 8-10 copies of the same program (TeXShop.app was especially bad). Turns out that fried the ability of terminal programs to launch XQuartz. A manual launch of XQuartz has remedied the problem.
