I’m retracting my earlier assumption above.  The change in libXt currently only 
appears to affect Motif and Motif-using packages.  

I wasn’t able to reproduce your issue here, so I’m not sure what’s going on.  
The usual culprits may apply:

1)  Restart Xquartz or even log out or even reboot. 
2)  Local emacs configuration.
