Hello list!

There seems to be a known/fixed bug in new xserver that leads to
(many|all?) motif-based applications to malfunction:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25400

There are already at least 2 PRs opened against individual ports:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=146383
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=146380

I think it is wrong to patch applications when the fault seems to be
in the server. Now I am running patched xserver with the patch pulled
>from the upstream git master:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=1c612acca8568fcdf9761d23f112adaf4d496f1b

I confirm that math/grace now works OK (PR 141383).
I'll watch if the patch causes any side effects (nothing so far).
What about dropping attached patch to x11-servers/xorg-server/files?

Cross-posting to ports@ as the bug already leaked in the individual
ports' PRs.
Let's look at updating to 1.7.7 or 1.8.0.  I need to poke the commit
logs for 1.7.7 and see if it is included.

Even better so. Just downloaded xorg-server-1.7.7.tar.gz and the patch
is already there:

[snip]

|--- dix/events.c.orig
|+++ dix/events.c
--------------------------
Patching file dix/events.c using Plan A...
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [y] n

Since there was no activity on this issue I have updated xorg-server
to 1.7.7. I have not seen any problems so far.
Any objections against updating xorg-server from 1.7.5 to 1.7.7?
Should I file PR?

I have an update to 1.7.7 queued up in my tree along with an updated pixman. It is a little tedious as all of the server based ports need to be updated and drivers need PORTREVISION bumps. I'll try and get it committed in the next couple of days though.
