I too was having problems with this after the upgrade last night.  It
seems that instead it wants: 

drwxrwxrwt2 root root 1024 Jun 24 10:37 /tmp/.X11-unix

Perhaps simpler, and what I did to fix the problem, is to rm -rf
/tmp/.X11-unix as root while X was not running.  My next attempt to
start X happily recreated everything in a way that it was happy with.

more upgrade woes

[Maitland Bottoms]

So,

Besides the ssh funnies, there are other interesting problems in the
lastest potato updates to hit the mirrors...

What should the permissions and ownership of /tmp/.X11-unix be to make
the X server happy?

And what about netscape:
/usr/bin/X11/netscape: line 277: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/usr/bin/X11/netscape: line 277: `  for f in ( cd $d;ls -1 . | sort 
); do'

Any others?

drwxrwxrwt2 root usersgroup   1024 Jun 24 01:44 /tmp/.X11-unix

I'm not sure if the latest X packages changed that, though.

 And what about netscape:
 /usr/bin/X11/netscape: line 277: syntax error near unexpected token `('
 /usr/bin/X11/netscape: line 277: `for f in ( cd $d;ls -1 . | sort 
 ); do'

The bugs for this have been filed (and fixed)...
