Hi,
This patch fixes a crash on sparc64 with xenocara/app/xclock.
The pid variable that is passed to XChangeProperty() is not a long.
The libX11 code deferences the variable as a long and on a 64-bit sparc
this must be aligned on a 8-byte boundary.
Because it is an int, it gets aligned on a 4-byte boundary, causing a
bus error.
Cheers,
David
