Hmm, presumably this is the problem. Looks like there's a bug when the
server resets (because the last client went away) while it's VT-switched
away. Should probably report this upstream.

Note that the server reset will undo any effect from xhost, so assuming
this is for bug #618622, you'll need a different approach anyway. :)
