These are X11 utilities.  They report information about the separate
X11 environment, which will does things differently from the rest of
the system and from non-X11 programs.

As you are already using X11, you may have more success with using an
X11 Emacs instead of an Aqua Emacs.  There is a Fink package for that
<http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/emacs>.

Sadly, there is no maintainer for the Aqua Emacs at the moment.
