"no buffer space available" on Win2K

Harold,

as promised I tried again with eval 'ssh-agent' commented out.
It seemed to go well for about 5 minutes of heavy windowing
interaction with two copies of Kylix, and I was ready to call
it a success, when suddenly the X screen disappeared, then re-appeared
with the grey surface (as it did before). 

One slight difference: Only some apps would now give me the
"no buffer space available" error. startxwin.sh, for instance,
would simply report: "cannot connect to 127.0.0.1".
Again, the only remedy was to re-boot the OS.
