I'm running OS X 10.5.5 and Xcode 3.1 with the Xquartz 2.3.0 X window
system. When I run an application that relies DCOP interprocess
communication (e.g., konsole, kdeinit, kate, kile, kdevelop, koctave,

There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE.

After that, the application may or may not succeed in launching. If

DOES launch, it will spew hundreds of lines of diagnostic messages to
the command line terminal as it runs and seems to be impaired in
operation.

so I don't think I've got an "owned by root" problem.
echo $DISPLAY gives /tmp/launch-hEMiiI/:0 I'm not trying to run
remotely.
I don't have a good grasp of the concept-of-operation of running X11
under MAC OS X. Could this be as simple as not having the right
things
in a .profile or .bashrc or .xinitrc?
Thanks

On 10.5 things _are_ a bit different than on prior OS X versions. I
had a similar error recently, but it _was_ due to an ownership issue.
The error with bind() is suggestive, though--perhaps something's gone
askew that would be cleared by a reboot and flushing of /tmp.
I suspect there isn't much in common with the thread you referenced,
since that was several versions of KDE ago.
