Reproducible assertion failure in XCB

2011-01-14 Thread Daniel Colascione 
1. Start the Z server
2. Start emacs -Q
3. M-x server-start
4. M-: (while t (call-process-shell-command "date" nil t))
5. Lean on C-g

Eventually, Emacs will crash with

assertion "XLIB_SEQUENCE_COMPARE(dpy->last_request_read, <=,
dpy->request)" failed: file
"/usr/src/ports/xorg/libX11/libX11-1.3.3-1/src/libX11-1.3.3/src/xcb_io.c",
line 249, function: process_responses
Fatal error (6)Aborted (core dumped)

If Emacs doesn't crash the first time and successfully exits the loop,
repeat steps 4 and 5.

There is a libX11_6 1.4.0-1 package in cygwinports (along with all the other
excellent work Yaakov has been doing packaging X11R7.6), it would be great if
you could test with that, as there have been several fixes in this area since
1.3.3

You could probably get away with just upgrading libX11_6, libX11-xcb1 and
libxcb1, rather than everything.  Although since those libraries have been
built with gcc 4.5, you might need to upgrade libgcc1, as well.

I can do that today or tomorrow --- but could someone kindly point me
to the repository? I thought you mean the Cygwin experimental
respository, but that turns out not to be the case.

A: Yes.

Q: Are you sure?

A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.

Q: Why is top posting annoying in email?
