Dear xzoom maintainer,

xzoom only runs on local displays. On remote displays, it aborts
with :

  X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private
    resource denied)
    Major opcode of failed request:  140 (MIT-SHM)
    Minor opcode of failed request:  1 (X_ShmAttach)
    Serial number of failed request:  18
    Current serial number in output stream:  19

xzoom needs to fall back on regular XImages if XShmAttach()
fails.

Thank you.
