Possible workaround, also interesting as a diagnostic:

Try DISPLAY=localhost:0 and/or DISPLAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:0
(xxx... = your system's own IP address).

The first should cause X to use AF_INET instead of AF_UNIX (different
transport mechanism) to talk to the local display.  The second should
do the same, but may take a different path through the network stack
(depending on how smart the stack is about optimizing such things).
