That sounds fine. If X servers already don't work on gnumach, anyway.
If they do, then people might prefer having it insecure.

Noone has mentioned this coming up in a very long time. All the related
code in libc will be rewritten and be entirely different at some point in
the future (maybe in glibc-2.3, maybe later) along with pthreads

unless someone else hits that assert.
