These all mean that the xfs is not listening to tcp i.e. the config file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs/config  has these 2 lines

  # turn off TCP port listening (Unix domain connections are still 
permitted)
  no-listen = tcp

and as it says it accepts Unix domain connections i.e. you have to run
  fslsfonts -server unix/:7100

in order to see the fonts

Those "garbage" are normal non Ascii characters such as UTF-8 (or 
extended Ascii )
