[pca] Problems with 119059-53

119059-53 appears to break OpenSSH.  Yes, I know that we could run
Sun's SSH, but for various reasons we haven't been.

If we ssh into a host with 119059-53 installed, and then run
"/usr/openwin/bin/xterm &" to open another window, the first window
will display:

X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.

and the DISPLAY variable will not have the hostname in it -- i.e.
just ":10.0".

It also appears to break printing via the 3rd party GISWxprint
package (which implements printing via Xprt), but I've only got as
far as confirming "Yep, it's broken" with that.

Installing /usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4 from older patch revisions
appears to fix this problem..

Has anybody else had issues with this patch?

Oh yeah, 119059-54 has the same problem.
