I've been using the register binary that's currently available on the 
MNI ftp site.  Under the new X11 release it is really fast (faster than 
Linux, which was not the case under XDarwin).  For some reason Display 
gives the error message

   'Cannot find menu file Display.menu and no compiled-in fallback'

I also have OS X emma binaries if anyone is using Matlab - not sure 
who's maintaining Emma now...
