These two events might indicate that you did not install the X11User  
package. This only brings the image "/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib"  
and some more. And it's this package that gets updated from the "X11  
Update 2006 1.1.3."

A change must come ... I for example am not able to install X11  
without the X11User package!
