Comment 17 for bug 315456

Looks like there has been some activity on this by greater minds than my own (my C hacking skills are lacking in a bad way...)

I currently use this for a variety of automation tasks on a few systems around the house, and used it for some tasks at work as well. Of course, that means forcing an old xorg version, which isn't exactly something I enjoy doing.

Just letting people know that there are still those of us without the Uber hackish skills of you xorg devs, but who do care about this. I appreciate everything that all of you are doing to further xorg in the first place, just hoping this keeps getting worked.

Looks like the major work is happening over here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21971
