Subject: missing call to ntohs in X server

Package: xs3
Version: 3.1.2-1

I see:
AUDIT: Fri Nov  3 09:21:37 1995: 23964 X: client 15 rejected from IP 127.0.0.1 port 32517
  Auth name: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1

But, from netstat we can see that the port wasn't 32517 (0x7f05) but
1407 (0x057f):

tcp        1      0 localhost:6000         localhost:1407         TIME_WAIT

There are probably other places where the server should convert port
numbers between host and network byte order.

Ian.
