On Macos 10.11.6 El Capitan ssh or gsissh -X or -Y are broken for X forwarding 
after installing globus.

I have the latest globus installed 
 globus-version 
6.0.1470089956

gsissh -V
OpenSSH_7.1p2-hpn14v10 GSI_GSSAPI_20160606 GSI, OpenSSL 1.0.2h  3 May 2016

gsissh -X or gsissh -Y were not forwarding X11 properly, but then I discovered 
that the ssh that globus
installs does the same thing:

 xterm
/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.7GLCukUnGU/org.macosforge.xquartz: unknown host. 
(nodename nor servname provided, or not known)
X connection to localhost:12.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

/usr/local/ossh/bin/ssh also is broken:

 xterm &
[1] 31670
-bash-3.2$ /private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.7GLCukUnGU/org.macosforge.xquartz: 
unknown host. (nodename nor servname provided, or not known)
X connection to localhost:12.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

but 

/usr/bin/ssh -Y me@…….

works fine
