[Xquartz-dev] Tiger fixes in 1.4.2-apple24 and 1.4.2-apple25, now 1.4.2-apple28

[Peter Dyballa]

Jeremy,

I think I've found the cause why these X servers from X11R7.4 won't  
launch! When debugging a problem in TeX I had to look into /tmp and  
found these directories:

	drwx------   3 x11       wheel    102 16 Dez 20:16 launch-MAAEET
	drwx------   3 pete      wheel    102 16 Dez 17:18 launch-PBeS8k
	drwx------   3 pete      wheel    102 16 Dez 20:24 launch-mO2Grc
	drwx------   3 x11       wheel    102 16 Dez 20:07 launch-osj5UZ

Each contains one object inside:

	srwx------   1 pete  wheel  0 16 Dez 17:18 :0

Because the :0 socket is hidden it's not found ... This unique time I  
could launch X11R7.4's Xorg server might have succeeded when Launch  
Service was not up-to-date, or whatever (I double-clicked the X11.app  
in /Applications/Utilities; in the ð menu bar the X11 menu was very  
sparse then. The About entry in the ð menu showed a different version  
then XFree 4.4.0.)

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something  
completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete  
fools.
