Modern versions of OpenSSH listen on localhost to forward the X11 connection (X11UseLocalhost defaults to yes). The following patch permits to consider as non local any DISPLAY environment which port is greater or equal to 10 else mplayer tries a local optimization on a distant X server which doesn't work. patch by [e-mail]
