This bug is related to only the debian package because of the
build flags they use. Compiling without -O2 it works fine. The
pb is that debian/ubuntu/.. ppl didnt got the updated package
and they all use a broken binary.
The debian packagers have an annoying tendency to build
everything with -O2, even wmii. I usually use -O0 even for
releases since, it being IO bound, there's no point in
optimization. Even if there were, -O1 or -Os would be more than
sufficient. Other packagers are worse, though. Some of them go
out of their way to a) build a shared lib version of libixp, and
b) make wmii link dynamically against it.
