Hi Marc, all: More digging on the Xquartz mailing lists led me to discover the source of this issue. It's a preferences setting in Mission Control: "displays have separate spaces". If that is clicked "on", then a range of X apps will exhibit the behavior that the title bar is hidden behind the menu bar. (You can see the title bar by entering Mission Control with F3). Once that setting is turned off, the problem goes away. Changing this setting does require a logout/login cycle.
