Qt apps at least (every time I have to figure out which one works with GLX and which one requires EGL; GTk *may* be a bit more graceful in this aspect). To the OP: nowadays, most of the time when I want to do stuff on my Linux rig from my Mac I use VNC (TigerVNC for the X11 server "plugin" and viewer). Overkill in a sense and remote copy/paste is an issue but you don't have to worry about support for graphics protocols. It's the other way round that I'm more likely to use remote X11, because I have much less screen real estate on the Linux rig than on the Mac.
