Hi -
I find I would need the following patch also, in addition to the
"Xvfb :NNN -ac" one from Friday. Can someone see a problem with
setting the test connection to DISPLAY=localhost:NNN instead of
DISPLAY=:NNN? Is this worth more elaborate run-time testing?

* lib/insight-support.exp (_gdbtk_xvfb_init): Set DISPLAY
to localhost:NNN instead of :NNN, in case Xvfb is listening
only on TCP.
