I experienced the same problem, and to make WP8 work again I,
apt-get delete xlib6
and then...
dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/xlib6_3.3.6-38_i386.deb
NOTE: The defective version of the above file seems to be "version 39".
Basically I had to roll back to the previous version. Now WP8 is back in
operation.
