Hello!

This patch seems to have broken something in Unix sockets in the Linux
ABI.  The acroread Linux binary cannot connect to the local X11 unix
socket ("cannot open display: :0.0".  Setting DISPLAY=<hostname>:0 works
(using a TCP socket instead), and I just verified that it works without
the patch.  Or can it be a bug in acroread?

(I'm running 8.2-REL/i386 on an IBM Thinkpad X40, and I'm using KDE
4.5.5)

Bengt
