The problem with that is you would need another server machine without 
an X display to run the gdnc and gpbs
servers for each machine with an X display but no GNUstep.
Basically, each X display requires its own gdnc and gpbs servers.
Also, if you have two machines displaying to the same X display, they 
must both use the same gdnc and gpbs
servers - so simply using a server on the local host in each case does 
not work.

Really, you must connect to servers with alternative names ... that way 
you can run multiple gdnc and gpbs
servers (each corresponding to a different display) on a single machine.
