Denis, I reassigned this to libx11-6. The problem isn't with the XFree86 X server -- the bug submitter isn't even *using* the XFree86 X server. He's using an IRIX X server. The problem is that the IRIX X server is sending stuff along the protocol stream that Debian's libX11 is barfing on. This is a bug in the IRIX X server (it's sending nonsense down the wire), or a bug in XFree86 4.3.0's libX11 (it's not handling unexpected data gracefully enough), or both. -- G.
