xmove, ssh, and problems

Can't get xmove working in conjunction with ssh.

Having two machines, say Grumpy and Sleepy, both have the xsession
open, I started xmove on Grumpy

$ xmove &
[1] 6538
$ Implementing MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 user authentication
XMove 2.0 ready.
$ xcalc -display grumpy:1 &
[3] 6569
$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -list
2 (no name) :0

Don't quite understand why "no name" here, expected something more
meaningful like "xcacl" or like. Nevertheless, I saw the xcalc window
on Grumpy.

Went to Sleepy and

$ ssh grumpy
$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10
$ xauth list | grep :10
Got the cookie from the last command, say KEY
$ xauth add localhost:10 . KEY
$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -move localhost:10 1

Please note that I tried various different commands instead of the
last xmovectrl like

$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -move grumpy:10 1
$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -move grumpy 1
....

None of them even worked.

After the last xmovectrl command I saw xcalc window on Sleepy. It
worked. Then I tried to move xcalc back to Grumpy. On Sleepy I did

$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -move :0 1

There were no messages (either warnings or errors) on Sleepy after
that command. On Grumpy I see

XMOVE: switching client 1 to display localhost:10
ETHAN: matching depth 24 to depth 24
(It's after moving to Sleepy I guess)
XMOVE: switching client 1 to display :0
ETHAN: matching depth 24 to depth 24

However I see no xcalc window on Grumpy, xcalc process is runnig

$ ps -l $(pgrep xcalc)
F S UID PID PPID C PRI NI ADDR SZ WCHAN TTY TIME CMD
0 S 1000 6569 6467 0 69 0 - 1067 select pts/0 0:00 xcalc -display grumpy:1
$ xmovectrl grumpy:1 -list
1 (no name) :0

But there is no xcalc window nowhere. Could you please tell me what
I've been doing wrong and where is the window?

Using Sarge, Xmove 2.0beta2-7
