[PATCH xextproto 1/5] XGE: Add xGESendEventReq

[Mikhail Gusarov]

Twas brillig at 20:29:39 24.09.2010 UTC+02 when carlosg at gnome.org did gyre and gimble:

 CG> Since xSendEventReq has a fixed size, it can't send xGenericEvents

Am I right that this patchset works around Xlib implementation
limitation by adding otherwise-useless request to GE extension?

According to
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/xextproto/tree/specs/geproto.xml#n74
on the wire GE already supports variable-length events.
