Subject: fvwm broken properties on 64-bit hosts [PATCH]

Package: fvwm
Version: 2.5.12-5
Severity: normal
I reported a 64-bit bug to the fvwm bug tracking system on 2005-07-05, but
it doesn't seem to be in-use (most of the >1000 entries in incoming are
spam), so I rpeort it here, too, in the hope of getting a fix into the
debian version.
The original bug report can be found here:
http://www.fvwm.org/cgi-bin/fvwm-bug/incoming?id=2617
the bug keeps many programs (e.g. mozilla) from opening any windows, or
windows will be very small (or other effects happen).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A copy follows:
On my 64 bit machines, many of the properties on the root window set by
fvwm2 are broken, for example:
_NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT(CARDINAL) = 0, 0, 0, 0, 8157808, 88, 4294959856,
4988053
_NET_WORKAREA(CARDINAL) = 0, 2880, 0, 2880, 0, 2880, 0, 2880, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1398480928, 540024925
etc.
The reason is that fvwm uses CARD32 in calls to X*Property, which is a 32
bit type. This works on 32-bit machines, where long has 32 bits, but on
64-bit machines, long has 64 bits and this breaks the property values.
Simply replacing CARD32 by long in ewmh*c and gnome.c fixes most of the
problems, but there might be other calls using CARD32 instea dof long.
long is the documented type for format==32, so this is wrong on 32 bit
hosts, too, even if it doesn't make an actual difference :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I made quick-hack patch against current CVS, which is likely to have
missed some of the bugs, but at least most of the properties now work, so
it's a definite improvement.
The patch can be found here:
http://data.plan9.de/fvwm.64bit-fixes.diff
It mostly gets rid of CARD32, which is not used in the xlib API, so it's
always a good indicator for a 64-bit bug.
