Could it be because the X10 GUI is based on a slightly older xFx build
than Viewer/Hub/SlimConnector? Have a look at the xAPMessage.DLL file
in the xAPFramework.NET subdirectory to tell, in the version info. I
made a little change to help that message duplication and it may be
the cause perhaps.

You could *try* updating X10 with the latest xAPFramework libraries to
see what happens, just by updating the xAPFramework.NET subdirectory
contents. I do emphasise "try" as I've no idea how compatible
they'll
be as drop-in replacements - I'm always making little changes and
improvements, but on the whole they should be backwards compatible as
I try not to break things like that, even if it's not something I test
for afterwards.

But this is really odd and I can't readily explain why the SlimServer
Connector would all of a sudden cause this duplication.

Nooooo, definitely not. No under the table communication going on
what-so-ever. It's the same for all xFx-based xAPps.
