Yeah, unfortunately the NX build process is far from simple, and some
of the places I have NX sessions I am not an administrator of the
system, so even if I fixed it I couldn't use it.  If this change is
going to affect X11 on other platforms NoMachine will have to fix it
eventually.  (Their attention to the Mac is pretty lousy - they still
don't even have an Intel native version of the client software.)

For anyone else who's affected, downgrading to X11 2.3.0 restored the
behavior; I can now resume NX sessions and get work done again.

Oh well.
