The server is on dhcp-178-150:0 and is slightly newer than XFree86 4.3,
but is not from any recent CVS.  It is pre-ipv6 support.  It has access 
control disabled (xhost +).

The client is on dhcp-178-251 and is using fairly recent libraries
from CVS.  The DISPLAY is set to dhcp-178-150:0.0 and I get:

_X11TransSocketOpen: socket() failed for tcp
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for tcp
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for tcp/dhcp-178-150:0
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: dhcp-178-150:0.0


   I find that:

1) The 4.3 libraries can connect to a CVS server.
2) CVS libraries can connect to a CVS server.
3) CVS libraries cannot connect to a 4.3 server.

                        Mark.
