VIM remote and Wayland

Hi there,

For some time now, I fear from the moment I switched to Wayland, my vim (either vim or gvim) do not create a "server" anymore. So --remote-tab doesn't work. Vim --serverlist returns no servers when I have a running gvim instance. This has been working for absolutely years!

gvim --remote-tab says "E247: No registered server named "GVIM": Send failed. Trying to execute locally" as a result, always.

gaia $ vim --serverlist
gaia $ echo $DISPLAY
:0
gaia $ xhost
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host

Anyone, please?
