I am sorry: it is me again with probably the final question: stracing revealed
the difference which I can't resolve myself due to lack of knowledge in socket
programming and IPv6
for port 6012 ssh fails to allocate DISPLAY since it is taken (so it is
normal):

whenever for 6013 it succeeds using IPv6 (although I believe I never set
it up on that box)
