I connect to 2 machines using putty and x-forwarding. Here
are the results:

OK, one has to install xauth. This might/should be a dependency of
xorg-libraries. imo.
No, because it's not a library :) It's an application and is part of
xorg-apps. It never used to be part of xorg-libraries either (it was
formerly in xorg-clients), so this was always something you needed to
do.
Ah, thats the missing link. After the upgrade xorg-clients were gone and not
updated to xorg-apps.
Thanks, Helmut
