/etc/Xn.hosts is not working

Hi,

Since moving to Xorg on one machine (7.0.22), I have this bug. In /etc/X0.hosts: local:

When I check the access list it shows: $ xhost access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect LOCAL:

However, a different user with DISPLAY=:0 cannot connect to the server.

If I then $ xhost local: non-network local connections being added to access control list

xhost shows the same output

$ xhost access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect LOCAL:

But then the different user can connect to the server.

This setup worked for XFree86 4.3.0. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not.
