You're over-complicating this. You can use X without forwarding X11 by
tunneling VNC or using nxclient. Both methods display the remote X11
sessions without giving the remote system access to your local X server.
For SSH, just start vncserver with the -localhost flag, and forward port
59xx as follows:
ssh -L5900:localhost:5900 vncserver.example.com
If you're using tightvnc (or the Debianizd vnc4 packages) you can do the
same thing with the -via flag to vncviewer. Then just connect to
localhost:0 with VNC, and voila!
