I commented out the XDrawLine() xlib calls and the lockups stopped. The code for XDrawLine doesn't look suspicious, and other screensavers using that call (like crystal) seem to be working okay, so it must be something with the way that braid is making the call. I verified that interaggregate also shows the same symptoms, which also uses XDrawLine().

It would be nice to have a simpler test case to demonstrate the problem, but the braid code is probably concise enough already. I'll go ahead and forward it upstream.
