X.org rather than XFree.org, but, yes, Leopard's X server is X.org-based 
rather than XFree86-based.

X server bug.  See

        http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1953

for details and, at the end, for information on where to get a fixed X 
server.

(Summary, for X geeks: the server temporarily set the depth of a 
drawable for some purpose and, in some error cases, failed to restore it 
to the correct value when done.)
