It looks like this is a change in the behavior of some Xorg internals,
and ubuntu's 175_set_pointer_screen_in_xtestfakeinput.patch might
restore the expected behavior, but i haven't tested it myself.  I'm
reassigning this to xorg-server to get their review.

To reproduce:

  xdotool mousemove 100 200 && xdotool getmouselocation

this should return:

  x:100 y:200 screen:0

If instead it returns the wrong location, that's the wrong behavior.

If you think that xdotool is somehow invoking xtst wrong, feel free to
reassign back to xdotool and i'll pursue it further with my upstream.

X.org maintainers: thanks for getting the new X.org into debian!

Regards,

        --dkg
