I think you will need to write DISPLAY=:0.0, or add the new '-listen
tcp' X server option.

OK,

$ DISPLAY=:0.0 ./libXbgi_mandelbrot.out

works. This seems enough..

If I understand, the option '-listen tcp' is needed to make it backward
compatible with DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0. Right?

That is correct.
