i'm not sure about this. osx x11 looks like an x from the early 90's. 
it's cumbersume, and i don't really like it.

yes, it does.

i don't see why anyone would do this, but you could try removing the 
'GLUT', 'OpenGL', 'CoreAudio' frameworks and move the x11 check of the 
top level sconstruct file out of the posix area.
