Yup, me too.
... although now that I look at it, I have both of these things
set in .ssh/config for that host:
ForwardX11 yes
ForwardX11Trusted yes
Does it work to enable only the latter? Is that better?
BTW, after poking around a bit I found where the config difference
is. XQuartz installation appends this to /etc/ssh/ssh_config:
# XAuthLocation added by XQuartz (http://www.xquartz.org)
Host *
XAuthLocation /opt/X11/bin/xauth
and then macOS takes that back out again :-(. Since there's no
/usr/bin/xauth, it's not real surprising that things don't work
without that.
