The X temporary directories has to be created early to avoid a race
condition where people can do something bad to the X server and other
X programs... AFAIR... I can't recall the details, just that there
issues with nuking the X temporary directories which means it needs to
be done careful.  I would guess the cvs logs for the respective
scripts should document the issues.
