Logically, XQuartz should not be needed at all; mpl on the mac does not require X11. It looks like XQuartz is an accidental dependency, as a way to get access to a suitable libpng. A link from the libpng web site led to this: http://ethan.tira-thompson.com/Mac_OS_X_Ports.html which might be a viable alternative.
