One thing to check is if your /etc/ssh/ssh_config and sshd_config point to an existing xauth. When using X from pkgsrc, you need to set XAuthLocation /usr/pkg/bin/xauth in BOTH files (ssh on client, sshd on server). The server also needs X11Forwarding yes in its sshd_config. That should be enough, I think.
Yup, that was it! The failing remote did not have X11Forwarding set.
