For a while I thought this bug has been solved, but here I am looking at
my $HOME forlder again. And what I see:

-rw------- 1 root root 103 Apr 20 10:39 .Xauthority
-rw-rw-r-- 1 user user  52 Apr 10 00:57 .Xauthority.2259UW

Now what is that second one? Reminds me of good old '.goutputstream-
2259UW'. Even size is the same 52bytes, even `strings
.Xauthority.2259UW` shows the same:

localhost-pc
MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1

One eye on strangeness, though i can't recall my actions on that
timestamp
