--- Comment #8 from Matthew Rezny <rezny at freebsd.org> ---
Duane,

Thank you for pointing out these problems and suggesting fixes. It is not
necessary to create the xserverauthfile with touch; xauth will create it on add
/ generate. The "does not exist" message is an expected informational message
from the init function in xauth.

Vladimir,

You are correct on both points. Additionally, the regex needs to be translated
to a BRE for BSD expr, i.e. '^vt[0-9]\+$' -> 'vt[0-9][0-9]*$'. There is an
upstream commit which corrects the syntax in both regards (removes match and
use of ERE syntax) but neglects the guard parenthesis.
