I had a very simmilar problem under 9.2: 

Under 9.2 there is a (strange) default setting for the X11-server to
deny any access over TCP. As the DISPLAY variable in scratchbox must
have a host part ("localhost:0.0", not ":0.0") xephyr cannot connect
correctly. The solution is to remove the option "-nolisten tcp" in the
file "/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers" for display 0.
Then execute "xhost +" outside of scratchbox and xephyr should run
correctly.  

Hope this helps,
