My crystal ball tells me that "echo $XAUTHORITY" in the above shell
session does not give you the same answer as M-: (getenv "XAUTHORITY") RET
IOW it's a pain in the ass introduced by gdm3. Please complain loudly,
so that maybe at some point they'll see that the "solution" they chose
is worse than the problem they tried to fix.

My crystal ball stayed mute for this one, sorry,
