font server causes XDec to runaway

Hi all

If I sit at the console of our Alpha 3000/300LX running DU4.0B
and append the font server to the font path using something like
this:

xset fp+ tcp/blah.blah.blah.blah:7000

the XDec server starts to hog CPU (and doesn't stop even if
I subsequently remove the font server from the path). Is this
expected ? It's making it difficult to use .dtprofile to add
font services into the path for logins from third-party X
terminals.

Ta in advance, will summarize
Andy
