X11 forwarding is working for me now, but wasn't when I first tried
it.  I found I was explicitly setting XAUTHORITY=~/.Xauthority in my
.zshrc file, so the temporary bits created in /tmp/ssh-foo/cookies by
ssh weren't being picked up.  I missed the beginning of this thread, but
you're not doing anything similar are you?  After fixing that, it seems
to be working for me.  Of course, I'm on 4.0-stable, so if that works
for you anyway and it's just 5.0-current which is broken, ignore me.
