Yes.  (My control client here was 'xterm'.)

No idea...  It's trivially reproducible for me running ssh -X from i386/etch
to amd64/sid, or even running ssh -X localhost on i386/etch.

An strace shows uae attempting to make two successive connections to the X
server.  In the first instance, it correctly opens ~/.Xauthority and
authenticates successfully.  In the second instance (after joystick/sound
detection), it looks at .uaerc/.Xauthority, which of course doesn't exist,
and fails to connect as a result.
