I looked into it. I can reproduce it. But I can't fix it. The various data (like fl_display) all appear to be okay but something doesn't like at least one part of the private data in that structure and I have no idea what that part is. A thread sprung up about a debian bug report against the xforms library for this and I provided them whatever data I could but I haven't heard anything further. So at the moment it seems the best option is to only use :0.0 for libforms programs. Allan. (ARRae)
