There is an open MR for libxcb (and libxtrans) that drops support for abstract unix sockets and changes the $DISPLAY parsing code so that a full path to a socket can be provided: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libxcb/-/merge_requests/30

If/when that MR is merged, we should follow suit.

(Yay, that's not the expected way to solve the problems with abstract unix sockets, but it is a nice way.)
