I installed X11-2.3.3_rc5.dmg and copied X11.bin-1.5.3-apple5 to 
/A/U/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin.

When the server started, it was erratic.  The programs started from my 
app_to_run shell did not all start correctly.  I found a series of 
errors in the console log:

10/04/2009 10 Apr 07:24:19 [0x0-0x12a12a].org.x.X11[75263] xmodmap:  .Xmodmap:74:  bad keysym target keysym '65506', no corresponding keycodes

10/04/2009 10 Apr 07:13:50 org.x.startx[74194] xmodmap:  15 errors encountered, aborting.

These errors were not in the startup with X11-2.3.3_rc4.dmg and 
X11.bin-1.5.3-apple5.

I reinstalled X11-2.3.3_rc5.dmg to get the xorg-server 1.4.2-apple41 
server.  When I restarted X11, it ran fine, without the errors (and 
without the need to sleep before calling xmodmap to get my settings).

I am not sure that X11.bin-1.5.3-apple5 is compatible with 
X11-2.3.3_rc5.dmg; no one said that I should try the two together.

Also, when I use the command
sh -c "sleep 15; xmodmap /Users/royar/.Xmodmap"
in ~/.xinitrc.d/50-xmodmap.sh, my initial windows lack decoration for 
the period taken by sleep. [This relates to an earlier problem I 
described regarding xmodmap and a race condition.]
