As far as I know :0.0 uses a Unix domain socket under /tmp while the
latter form uses TCP/IP.

It only could be shared memory (used by some X protocol extension as
far as I know) if the client only tries to use it with a DISPLAY set-
ting not including a hostname.  I'd have to look up details to know
more about this.

The bug in questions seems to have something to do with the Unix
domain sockets as backing out one of the changes was said to make it
work normal again.  That is consistent with the difference in the
working and non-working DISPLAY settings.

Stefan.
