xorg x11 6.9.0-50.58
I have a very simple test program that opens 4 threads and does
XOpenDisplay(opening 4 separate display objects).
i keep getting segfaults on different places in the function
seems like some kind timing problem that causes memory corruption.
before i start giving backtraces here any one seen this problem before?
I can re-produce when working on X in debug, but couldn't re-produce it
when used Electric Fence Malloc Debugger with my program (wanted to see
if memory check can find any overruns)
