Bug Description

Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
Release: 12.04

1) Run the attached example (xcb application);
2) Press "Space" button to grab the keyboard;

Expected:

Window is still movable around, since xcb_grab_keyboard sets pointer handling to XCB_GRAB_MODE_ASYNC (x11 spec says "If pointer_mode is XCB_GRAB_MODE_ASYNC , pointer event processing is unaffected by activation of the grab. ")

Actual:

Window is stuck.

Which version of libxcb does this apply to?

It's likely to be fixed in a more recent release. Have you checked this?
