Nothing jumps out at me as obvious -- I assume you've checked using  
otool -L to make sure that xterm is really linking against the correct  
libX11 (and not one from MacPorts, or something -- although we should  
fix that in MacPorts, too :))

Can you put up the binary you're generating for libX11 somewhere?    
I'll disassemble it and compare it to what I get when I build with  
those flags.
