I am not sure, but I think it would be already able to degrade if it was able 
to detect error. But from what I observed, after X server (successfully) sends 
the file descriptor, no more data gets thru. So the X client (application) 
just waits indefinitely.

Probably the easiest would be to probe it. It could just send the initial 
request starting with 'r' or 'R' and observe whether X server accepts or 
rejects the connection.
