XQuartz 2.7.9 with +iglx added to serverargs on line 112 of /usr/X11R6/bin/startx
defaultserverargs="$defaultserverargs +iglx"

Works perfectly.
name of display: surface86:18.0
display: surface86:18  screen: 0
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.4
etc etc etc.

Attached is a patch file.  After patching startx, users can then do this: 
defaults write org.macosforge.xquartz.X11 enable_iglx -bool true
