[Xquartz-dev] Bugfixes for 2.5.0_rc1

So the main issues I've seen reported from 2.5.0_rc1 are:

$PATH should be reordered
  - Fixed locally

Display config changes result in clipped pointer events (can't move window some places)
  - I know a fix, checking upstream to see if it's the best fix

Xephyr and Xnest have bad keymaps
  - Fixed locally ... you can use these binaries:
    http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/testing/Xnest
    http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/testing/Xephyr

System fontconfig segfaults after updating to XQuartz
  - The only thing this can be is a conflict in the caches.  I can't really "fix" this
    in an XQuartz update since it's the system fontconfig crashing

System X11.app starts as "default" X11.
  - You need to log out for that.  I don't want to force logout in the installer.

After logging out and back in, system X11.app won't run
  - This is an issue with the system X11 and the fix must come from Apple.

If I missed an issue, please report it (preferably with a bug report at http://xquartz.macosforge.org).  As it is now, I think I have mostly eliminated the reported issues.  Thanks for testing.
