Hello,

The libx11 commit "global: call XInitThreads() from the library's
constructor" identified in this issue is also breaking notion.

notion 4.0.2+dfsg-6 with libx11-6 2:1.8.1-1 crashes with this message:

  notion: tpp.c:82: __pthread_tpp_change_priority: Assertion `new_prio == -1 || (new_prio >= fifo_min_prio && new_prio <= fifo_max_prio)' failed.

I rebuilt libx11 with the new --disable-thread-safety-constructor flag
and then notion started working again.
