Until the computer having this problem got new hardware I had that
problem. I'll try to take a look at the Xorg sources later if they
still have the problematic part (I'm guessing a signal a malloc
of a connect to X and the signal doing a longjump out) and if I can
somehow force the timing without hardware triggering that so directly
any more. Though I guess I most likely won't have the time before the
end of the month.
