While supporting multiple -nolisten arguments is good, I suggest that the
current '-nolisten tcp' should include both inet4 and inet6 tcp options; 
most people use '-nolisten tcp' to avoid exposing an open port to the X 
server to the network.

        -nolisten inet4         don't listen for TCP/IPv4 connections
        -nolisten inet6         don't listen for TCP/IPv6 connections
        -nolisten tcp           don't listen for any TCP connections
