Hi,

you might want to try MacPorts also for TeX. They split the whole
distribution up into smaller packages:
https://trac.macports.org/wiki/TeXLivePackages
If you're lucky, texlive-basic is already enough. I think the package
has some hidden X11 dependencies, so if you're really lucky, that's
all you need. If not, there is also the xorg package, which feels
significantly smaller than TeX, but I might be mistaken on that one.

I have both, TeX and X11, installed but stilled failed to build the
entire documentation because roff2ps is missing. So this might not be
the end for you if you want to try it again.
