This is related to a 1995 CERT advisory:

http://packetstorm.securify.com/advisories/mci/iMCISE:MIIGS:XVUL:1102:95:P1:
R1

It may be a misconfiguration issue, at best. However, since it's been
brought up again, it is worthwhile reexamining the code concerned. Cruft is
bad.

I have forwarded the post to the XFree86 devel group with my two cents.
