Thanks for fixing the bug, Marcin. :)

For the rest of us:

The most recent release of the X.Org server at the time of this writing,
xorg-server-1.12.2.901, still has the bug.  Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) ships
with X.org server 1.11.4, and the most recent tagged version on this
branch, xorg-server-1.11.99.902, also has the bug.

Unless the fix finds its way back into the X.Org server 1.11 branch, I
wouldn't expect to see this bug fixed in Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) at all.
If the only way to fix this bug is to upgrade all of the X.Org packages
to a newer branch (1.12 or beyond), then the Ubuntu maintainer who
wanted such a change would have to justify why he needed to upgrade so
many important packages at once.  That's a tall order.

Arguing for such a big change seems like it would be especially
difficult because (a) 12.04 is an LTS release and (b) the problem
doesn't cause severe problems in packages other than games.
