DISPLAY is now something like DISPLAY=/tmp/launch-QFqPcx/org.macports:0. The X server running is X.Org X Server 1.9.3/Build Date: 20101229 from MacPorts. It works again with BlackboxWM. But: GNU Emacs does not launch. None of my many X client variants (22.3, 23.0.60, 23.0.94, 23.1.93, 23.2, 24.0.50) launches as X client. All what happens is that the CPU load rises to maximum. And eight minutes at this level clearly is not normal behaviour.

Can you mail me a stackshot (ctrl-opt-cmd-shift-. will put it in /Library/Logs/stackshot*.log ... wait a few seconds after taking it) and a spindump (sudo spindump ... filename will be reported to you) while it's in this state?
