Things have changed a little; from the FC3 release notes....

In addition, OpenSSH is no longer configured to request X11 
forwarding by default when connecting to servers. To enable X11 
forwarding, the -X or -Y option must be specified, or the 
ForwardX11 option must be enabled in the ~/.ssh/config file.

The behavior of ssh clients that are invoked with the -X flag has 
changed. In OpenSSH 3.8 and later, X11 forwarding is performed in a 
way that applications run as untrusted clients by default. 
Previously, X11 forwarding was performed so that applications 
always ran as trusted clients. Some applications may not function 
properly when run as untrusted clients. To forward X11 so that 
applications are run as trusted clients, invoke ssh with the -Y 
flag instead of the -X flag, or set ForwardX11Trusted in the 
~/.ssh/config file.
