Wow, I can't believe nobody noticed that before. It's fixed now in git.

Explain what you mean by this? Is there anything useful in system.log?

I don't see anything that would show a hang of X11 there. Do you have
a trace?

I'd recommend trying 2.3.2_rc2 instead of going down to 2.3.0.
2.3.2_rc2 is very usable. There are a few quirks with quartz-wm with
the maximize button, but there is a fix for that in the other thread.
The only thing blocking it at this point from release is more GLX
updates.
