- This is the key. It was a bug in the endsession scripts if you had
- digits in the hostname. It was fixed after 405F
- (it was introduced during dualhead changes in 402).

- The intent was to remove the screen number (if any) from $DISPLAY.
- Change the line that sets PROP_DISPLAY to just set it to $DISPLAY;
- that works for just about everybody.
