really sorry for tripleposting, but on the fly bug research lead me to
this:

the bug is related to "X Window authorization" or "xauth"
according to wikipedia a cookie based access:
"These cookies are created by a separate program and stored in the file 
.Xauthority in the user's home directory, by default."
if i run `strings .Xauthority` i get almost the same as in .goutputstream*DW:
<3 identical lines (check two posts up)>
<2 lines that repeats the first two>

question remains - how do these .Xauthority get's partially duplicated
into bunch of .goutputstream* on every shutdown?
