As far as I can see the bug mentioned in the above advisory is not fully
fixed.

When logged in to a FreeBSD 8.2 machine with freshly updated /usr/src
(world and kernel) [made on Wed Nov 16] via an XDMCP session, acroread
says

No protocol specified

(acroread:2908): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
pc200404.maths.tcd.ie:0.0

Logged in to the same host via ssh -Y , I have DISPLAY set to something
like localhost:10.0 and acroread does launch. It also launches on the
console X display.

I would be happy with pointers as to a fix for this.

Yours,

Richard Timoney
