so, here's the problem. client application (kcmikbd) calls connect()
this means it creates client-side secret event and signals it, and
then it calls check_peer_secret_event(). As long as server-side secret
event doesn't exist yet, it creates it too, and waits until it's
signaled. Now, server application (X), tries to create server-side
secret event, but it already exists, so it just opens it and signal
it. client sees that server-side event is signalled (that means that
accepting server knows secret cookie and therefore is "legitimate"),
and so connect () returns newly opened socket for application. But
then, application closes this socket immediately, destroying
client-side secret event. but server had not yet opened it. when
server calls check_peer_secret_event () at last, it creates it anew,
and because client have already passed connect() call, nobody would ever
signal this new client-side secret event. so, server waits for some
time and exits as if client was trying to cheat us by opening AF_INET
connection without signalling secret event.

i'd try to figure out some way to fix it.
