Recently the launcher has begun crashing most of the times I try to start it.
When I start it from the command line, I get the following output
Bootstrap (v5)

The program 'java' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter)'.
(Details: serial 598 error_code 143 request_code 140 minor_code 7)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)Linked issues

Bug in openjdk: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8056151
Perhaps there's a bug in OpenJDK, but I got this error while using Oracle's java.
Funny how you didn't notice that right there in the bug report and closed it.
Anyway, this is neither a Minecraft nor a Minecraft Launcher bug, that's happening some layers below since Minecraft (Launcher) isn't talking to X Window directly.
For reference if anyone else encounters this error, it is fixable by adding -Dswing.systemlaf=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel to the commandline between java and -jar
Example:
java -Dswing.systemlaf=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel -jar Minecraft.jar

in the console output does not indicate a crash.
Do you get some kind of X windows message like the OP ?
Thanks for the quick response.
The Launcher goes straight to the screen shot attached (stock mac window frame, with "Minecraft Launcher 1.6.44" title, with all white content). Never an error of any kind.
The thing I think MIGHT be the issue, as my wife has identical hardware and setup to me (Java versions, etc), is that there is some kind of Java setting somewhere that persists beyond the Minecraft folders. I have done a system wide `find` for Minecraft, and Java and can't find one. But this is all I can think of as my wife's setup is identical on everything (hardware, OSX version, Java setup, Minecraft version, etc.) and works flawlessly. In fact, short of reinstalling the OS, I cleared and reinstalled Minecraft and Oracle Java (matches version embedded in Minecraft.app resources directory) on both computers, and hers continues to work and mine does not.

@unknown, that seems to be MCL-3989
Sorry to bump this ancient issue, but Chris, we have tried and failed to get in contact with you regarding a license change on the SpongePowered SpongeDocs.
If you could get back to us we would really appreciate it.
I had the same crash.
