I'm not quite sure as I don't use X11 on Plan 9 for these reasons:

1) "You really don=92t want to use this. It=92s old and slow and only
    works well on 8-bit displays."

2) When look at my available hardware and hosted OSs I realize
   even on my FreeBSD machines I don't have X11 installed. So,
   there's no good way for me to test.

But if the X11 port does expect EBADF on the EOF, then I'd expect
it to break.
