:What is the portable patch supposed to do?  I somehow missed that.

sorry, i should have been more clear.  currently there are 2 authorization
entries added for X11 forwarding with xauth.  1 for familyinternet and 1
for familylocal.  i do not believe the familylocal entry is needed.  i
would like to get people to test this on platforms i don't have (solaris,
aix, windows, etc.)  i have tested this on openbsd, hp-ux 11 and linux
(redhat 7.2).

specifically, can i hear reports where this patch *breaks* x11 fowarding
on the server?

we just set screen to NULL, so the /unix entries are not added.
