[Xquartz-dev] X11-2.4.0_alpha2 - same issue with cpu 100%

First a bit of an aside:

1) "quartz-wm --only-proxy" is essentially a no-op.  Go ahead and  
delete it.
2) I recommend you use the system xinitrc And do the following:

rm ~/.xinitrc
mkdir ~/.xinitrc.d
cat > ~/xinitrc.d/90-kde.sh <<EOF
. /sw/bin/init.sh

export KDEWM=quartz-wm
exec /sw/bin/startkde &> /tmp/kde.log
EOF

----

As far as the CPU usage, I wish I could reproduce it, but I have no  
idea whatsoever...

Does this happen to you if you use kwm (or whatever the KDE "normal"  
WM binary is) for your KDEWM?

Does this happen if you don't use KDE?

Maybe try changing the /sw/bin/startkde to just 'exec xterm' and try  
stepping though the startkde shell script piece by piece until you  
find the X client that is triggering this issue... that may provide a  
clue as to the underlying cause.
