Hmm...not having a $HOME/.xinitrc should be fine ($HOME/.xinitrc is what 
I meant by customizing the startup)

The scripts from Fink's xinitrc are actually deactivated by the Xquartz 
update (using "fink reinstall xinitrc" will re-enable that), so Xquartz 
should fall back to its default behavior.

The best things I can think of to check right now would be whether 
/opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc is present, and whether the scripts 
/opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d are executable.  Also, perhaps check 
whether there is a zombie window manager process via "ps ax | grep wm".
