Based on the fact that you're using Allegro on OS X, there are two
simple things that could be wrong, that you should check before going
much further:

* you may have forgotten to start X11.app;

* the CLX implementation provided by Franz may be incompatible with
  Apple's X11.app (e.g. IPv6 entries in ~/.Xauthority).

Make sure that you can connect to your X server: if you can't do that,
there's not a lot that any McCLIM code can do about it.

Cheers,

Christophe
