It does check that it can bind to the port, though (see
x11_create_display_inet()).
I suspect the root of your problem is some funkiness with IPv6. Note
that some of the listening sockets in your original post are listening
on ::1 and some on 127.0.0.1.
Do you have X11UseLocalhost set in sshd_config? If so, what does
"localhost" resolve to?
If you can afford to do so you could try running without the ipv6
stack loaded.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
