Perhaps a -Y flag is required.
I'm not sure what "trusted X11 forwarding" means.
There's a brief mention of it in "man ssh_config". It's not normally
needed for the vast majority of apps
My experience is the complete opposite. Red Hat has even issued an Errata
for RHEL 4 making trusted forwarding the default. I believe the only apps
I have personally seen that work with untrusted forwarding are things like
xeyes and xterm (as long as you don't want to copy and paste).
Take a look at this comment from Mike Harris:

Interesting; just this morning I was remotely administering a SuSE box
running yast2 over an ssh -X connection, last night I used rdesktop over
one and I've definitely run firefox over one in the past. I wasn't doing
much (any?) copying and pasting though.
