I vaguely remember a problem of this type I encountered a couple of
years back, which was down to something along the lines of the entry  
in hosts for the machine name pointing to 127.0.0.1 and something  
being too smart and trying to use unix domain sockets for X (when  
target ip was 127.0.0.1).

Sorry this is so vague...

I would attempt setting the X display to an explicit-non-loopback- 
ip:display-num and see if that helps... also check xauth entries.
