And why would you want to do that? The reason I ask is because in the
past I've used the trick of setting display to mymachine:0 to deal
with "energizer bunby sindrome" and to cure some of the bugs which
made XEmacs hang if run over SHM transport. IMO, if user asked for a
display to point to host, just point to host and don't try to second
guess her intentions, she knows best, really.
This code is in sound.c. If the user is local, it will send sound data
to the local sound device. If the user is remote, it will try to use
NAS, if that is configured.
