Could it be related to mixing (as you showed in your post)
DISPLAY=
and
Export DISPLAY
???
The example shows:
$ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
$ ssh -X remotehost
or
$ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 ssh -X remotehost
which is different from your original post.
May you tried all the combinations already?
