Some while ago this topic was discussed on the x11-users mailinglist  
and a bug report was filed

http://lists.apple.com/archives/x11-users/2008/Jul/msg00003.html

how the X11 display resoultion of 75 dpi could be easily changed to  
the more appropriate 96 dpi.
For more information see this hint

Since the fix is quite small, is there any chance that this will go  
into the upcoming 2.3.2 ? Setting

defaultserverargs="-dpi 96"

in /usr/X11/bin/startx will be sufficient.

Thx
Simone
