That's a "gimp" bug then. "gimp" needs to be fixed to work when the X11
SECURITY extension is active and the application treated as "untrusted"
(which is now the default for both OpenSSH and SSH.com's version of
"ssh").

Please file a bug against "gimp" and post the bug number (or bugzilla
URL) back... Thanks!
