:0.0 and DHCP

I use DHCP for IP address at home and work.

I had X running at work, closed the lid, went home.
Reconnected, started working, tried to launch X apps.
Apps complained they couldn't open display :0.0.

The problem seems to be that with my new IP address, X
thought the old :0.0 was a different display, no doubt
because OSX decides to rename my machine when I get a
new IP. I presume the apps were looking for:
	workname:0.0
but finding that :0.0 belonged to homename.

Suggested fixes?  Possibly worth addressing in the
final version of X11?
