0005580: Crash on Startup on Mountain Lion
When running the latest version of Dwarf Fortress on the developer preview of Mac OS Mountain Lion it crashes on start. The error is included below.

I've reproduced this on the two previous versions.

Mountain Lion Beta 2 now suggests you install XWindows from the following address : http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/ [^]

Mountain Lion must have removed this from previous releases of Mac OS.

The actual problem here appears to be a missing freetype dylib - resolving in favor of 0007389.
