      We should not use ECASE when looking at the FAMILY bit of an .Xauthority
      file, because the user can legitimately have families in there that CLX
      does not support.  Instead, be permissive, on the basis that we will never
      choose a family we don't support as the best authorization.
    
      (Also log a comment about IPv6 support, which triggered this patch.

      slight refactor to be more explicit about which conditions we are
      dealing with.
