Well, fontforge does require an X11 server. Which one are you wanting to use? OS X's (if you have a version of OS X that came with one)? MacPorts' (from the xorg-server port)? Xquartz's? Whichever you want to use, is your DISPLAY environment variable set up correctly to auto-launch that X11 server? If not, you'll have to manually launch that X11 server first, at least.

fontforge updated several times since this ticket.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Removed all traces of X11 + MacPorts.
Reinstalled MacPorts + this error occurs now.
