I'll try to remember that next time a restart the X server (which
probably happens when I can upgrade to a released and stable
woody...).
But my point was that, *by default*, the X server listens to tcp
connections from anywhere. (I'm running the Xsun server, so I still
have some hope that the default behaviour is better in modern X
packages).

I hope there will be a sensible list of release criteria, prepared
with input from both the release manager the hurd folks, when Debian
GNU/Hurd gets closer to release, and putting FW-tools on that list
sounds pretty nonsensical. But I'm happy to postpone that discussion
until the list is being prepared and release getting closer.

IIRC, Markus have written a proposal on more flexible arch handling,
and I think there is some (slow) progress.
