EXA:
- without your patch: no problems, no errors in Xorg.log, no perceived
timeouts.
- without your patch: no problems, no errors in Xorg.log, no perceived
timeouts

XAA:
- without your patch: the infinite loop as reported in comment #1.
- without your patch, with my "return;": error messages as reported in comment
#1

- with your patch: no error messages in the Xorg.log, but a perceived timeout
  of ~1 sec between resizing and the actual update. Since no error is printed,
  this timeout is not fatal like without the patch.

One thing worth noting is that with XAA, gnome applications don't display much
more beyond the background colours until resized. gnome-calculator for example
only shows a grey and a white rectangle, no buttons etc. xterm doesn't always
render properly either, leaving half the window white. gnome-calculator
doesn't accept mouse clicks on the buttons. 
with EXA, that seems to be fine.

Do you want a syslog for any of those situations?
