Maybe the problem is with what you call "XQuartz X11 emulator." What
Apple delivers is a bit old and a bit restricted. Here are more up-to-
date X servers:
http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/SL
Some can be a bit experimental (2.5.0_rc?), SL stands for Snow
Leopard. They are add-ons which are connected to MacPorts and which
use partly Apple's X11 installation. Updates of this Apple software
will make a re-installation of the add-ons necessary. The 2.4 and 2.5
versions have an extended preferences pane which allows to enable
sharing snippets between Aqua pasteboard and X11 clipboard/cut&paste
buffers/selections.
You could also use a local "Apple" variant of GNU Emacs 23.1.9x (from
CVS) or 24.0.50 (from Bazaar) or their X client to connect via TRAMP
to your Linux cluster. These developer versions of GNU Emacs have the
utf-8-hfs encoding system to handle Apple's way to store non-US ASCII
characters in file names.
