Hello list!

There seems to be a known/fixed bug in new xserver that leads to
(many|all?) motif-based applications to malfunction:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25400

There are already at least 2 PRs opened against individual ports:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=146383
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=146380

I think it is wrong to patch applications when the fault seems to be
in the server. Now I am running patched xserver with the patch pulled
from the upstream git master:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=1c612acca8568fcdf9761d23f112adaf4d496f1b

I confirm that math/grace now works OK (PR 141383).
I'll watch if the patch causes any side effects (nothing so far).
What about dropping attached patch to x11-servers/xorg-server/files?

Cross-posting to ports@ as the bug already leaked in the individual
ports' PRs.

Let's look at updating to 1.7.7 or 1.8.0. I need to poke the commit logs for 1.7.7 and see if it is included.

robert.

Thanks,
Alexey.
