After upgrading to High Sierra, XQuartz refuses to run at all, due to 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103662 
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103662>

Googling turned up a note that XQuartz is out of date, but the MacPorts package 
xorg-server is updated.  I uninstalled XQuartz and installed xorg-server.  It 
worked perfectly, so I compiled my X11 programs using its headers and libraries.

My programs ran, but the fonts were not anti-aliased!  The code uses libXft and 
the fonts were anti-aliased previously under XQuartz.

After some fruitless googling, I installed XQuartz again and compiled using its 
headers and libraries.  Now the fonts are rendered correctly, even though I am 
still using xorg-server!

Does anybody have any ideas why the same code would behave so differently with 
XQuartz libs vs xorg-server libs?

Thanks,
John Lindal
