Maybe something pertaining to the switch to libxcb rather than xtrans for libX11... ? There's not much to go on here. While I don't doubt that you are seeing this behavior due to changes in XQuartz or the libraries, I have many doubts that the issue is a bug in XQuartz or the libraries. It's much more likely that the bug is in molmol itself if simply changing stdin fixes the behavior.

The issue seems to be that the use of "< /dev/null" in the molmol startup script... if [ "$input" = "-" -o -n "$nograph" ]; then echo "LineBond solid 1 " >>| $startmacro ; @PREFIX@/share/molmol/src/main/molmol $xopt else echo "LineBond solid 1 " >>| $startmacro ; @PREFIX@/share/molmol/src/main/molmol $xopt < /dev/null fi is no longer tolerated under X11 in 10.7. Only if remove the use of "< /dev/null" does molmol run normally.
