I have a dual-head setup that only presents one "screen" to X (subdivided by xinerama).
If I run xwininfo -root -display :0.0 it works as expected, giving the root window information for my single "screen".
If I run xwininfo -root -display :0.1 it segfaults.
I expect it to exit gracefully with an error message. On Ubuntu 8.04 this error message used to be "cannot open display :0.1".
The problem could lie in libxcb (I'm no expert) xcb_connection_has_error() no longer returning true in the -display :0.1 case, but I've attached a patch for xwininfo anyway.

[Impact]
xwininfo segfaults if called with an out-of-range display number.
[Test Case]
1. xwininfo -root -display :0.0
2. xwininfo -root -display :0.1
Actual Behavior:
* First command passes
* Second command segfaults
Expected Behavior:
* First command passes
* Second command returns an error message without segfaulting
[Fix]
The proposed patch works as is and is proposed for both precise and quantal.
[Regression Potential]
The patch is small and only affects an error condition check, so the chance of a regression seems very small. xwininfo is not widely used, so the impact of a regression would be minimal as well.
