	Right at the moment, I've confirmed that the problem still exists
with 2.1.0p1 and, using a verbose mode connection, it seems to be something
weird in the authentication protocol...  Here's what I get when connect
with ssh -v and then run xterm:

] [mhw at canyon mhw]$ xterm
] debug: Received X11 open request.
] debug: fd 6 setting O_NONBLOCK
] debug: channel 0: new [X11 connection from canyon port 1055]
] debug: X11 connection uses different authentication protocol.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	What the hell is this?
] debug: X11 rejected 0 i1/o16
] debug: channel 0: read failed
] debug: channel 0: input open -> drain
] debug: channel 0: close_read
] debug: channel 0: input: no drain shortcut
] debug: channel 0: ibuf empty
] debug: channel 0: input drain -> wait_oclose
] debug: channel 0: send ieof
] debug: channel 0: write failed
] debug: channel 0: output open -> wait_ieof
] debug: channel 0: send oclose
] debug: channel 0: close_write
] debug: X11 closed 0 i4/o64
] debug: channel 0: rcvd ieof
] debug: channel 0: non-open
] channel 0: istate 4 != open
] channel 0: ostate 64 != open
] debug: channel 0: rcvd oclose
] debug: channel 0: input wait_oclose -> closed
] X connection to canyon:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

	So to answer your question?  I don't know.  I'm afraid that it
would just give you my problem (but it would confirm that it's not
a cockpit error on my part :-) ).
