I recently upgraded Xquartz to fix a problem with it listening for remote connections. That's fix, however, if I prepend a remote fontserver, clients hang trying to retrieve fonts and eventually fail. I downgraded Xquartx to 2.7.8 to temporarily resolve my issue.
Please attach a spindump focused on the server when in the hung state.
I've seen this in a custom Xserver on Linux, built with libXfont 1.5.4. Looks like the cause is this change: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXfont/commit/?id=6972ea08ee5b2ef1cfbdc2fcaf14f06bbd391561 I think authlen needs rounding up in the calculation for crac.length. Something like: crac.length = (sizeof (fsCreateACReq) + ((authlen + 3) & ~0x3)) >> 2;
