OK ... the new freenx (0.7.3-9) and nx (3.5.0-2) have been pushed to CentOS-5 extras and CentOS-6 extras.
They should be on mirror.centos.org in the next 20 minutes and then on the external mirrors (on mirrorlist) within 24 hours.
Thanks - can't ask for better support than that!
FWIW - xeyes is something I might run to test a problem, and apparently I haven't had any problems with freenx for the time this bug has existed even though I nearly always have 3 or more NX sessions open every day to different locations from my work machine - each with an assortment of remote ssh connections to other hosts. It has been very reliable and useful.
I do tend to forget about xauth not being included by default on 6.x, but 'ssh -v -X' was the right way to discover that.
