When checking a package on MacOS High Sierra the XQuartz server starts up at 
the "checking S3 generic/method consistency" step. This is easy to reproduce:

Start RStudio
Select New->Project->NewDirectory->R Package (I checked "use .git")
BuildPane->More->BuildSourcePackage
At the bas command line run: R CMD check --as-cran empty_0.1.0.tar.gz
At the "checking S3 generic/method consistency" step XQuartz will start up.  I 
can work around it.  But I think it may be a possible symptom of a bad 
dependency that may cause trouble on Windows and Mac systems without an 
X-server. It seems to require the --as-cran flag to trigger.
