remote ooffice hang

Dear All,
        I'm using a very recent Xquartz (2.2.3) + fink on OSX Leopard,
which I tend to use mainly as a
remote X11 client for various Linux boxes running fedora 8.


Since upgrading to leopard/Xquartz, remote ooffice from a Linux now hangs.
Other X clients are fine. I can't tell whether this is a ooffice
problem, fink issue, or
Xquartz one.

For example

% strace ooffice
....yadayada....

rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {0x436cc0, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x3671830f30},
{SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
wait4(-1,

Wierdly, ooffice works remotely as root. And hammering the
~/.openoffice.org2.0
directory doesn't help much...


Anybody have a clue what this might be?

Cheers,
        James.


PS My home directory mounts via samba, so I set
XAUTHORITY = /tmp/.Xauthority.$USER
 to enable remote X clients to run OK, since samba doesn't allow various
locking operations.

/etc/ssh/sshrc on the remote box is hacked to cooperate....

# /etc/sshrc
