It could be a result of mismatched permissions between the user creating the
.Xauthority file and the user running uae, yes.

Hmm, certainly strange then.

Ah, much to my surprise, I am able to reproduce this problem when
remote-displaying from a machine running unstable.  Or from etch -- but in
both cases only when trying to display it remotely.

So there seems to be some sort of a problem with how uae, and uae
specifically, is handling xauthority information.

There is some sort of a bug here, though it may not be grave and it may not
be a bug in uae; anyway, reopening in the meantime so we can track this
while trying to figure out the nature and scope of the bug.
