XAllocID issues -- returns 0, calls geteuid, looks strange

[jg%40laptop.org]

Yes; the server allocates the client a range of ID's it can allocate from at connection setup time; the only other time XAllocID would talk to the server is if it has exhausted its initial supply (which is quite a lot).

Ok, so 

printf("%u\n", XAllocID(dpy)); 
printf("%u\n", XAllocID(dpy)); 

gives me 

58720257 
0 

and no XFlush(), XSync(), XFlushGC() between the two changes that. I'm 
using XAllocIDs() instead which seems to work properly, but is this 
expected behaviour for XAllocID()?
