Public bug reported:

This applies to both fglrx and fglrx-updates, as they are currently both
installing Catalyst 11.8.

When running certain OpenGL based applications in Ubuntu 11.10, they
will crash with the following error:

[xcb] Extra reply data still left in queue
[xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
../../src/xcb_io.c:575: _XReply: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_extra_reply_data_left' 
failed.

Notably, wine is causing issues like this. Both official wine1.2 and wine1.3 
from the ubuntu-wine PPA are affected.
Using winedbg, I have traced one cause of the error back to one of the 
libraries that come with fglrx. Can't seem to reproduce it now, though. 
Probably because certain debug symbols are missing.

I've tested Catalyst 11.9 from the AMD website last night (fglrx 8.892), and 
managed to get wine working with that.
It is still unclear to me if the issue lies in a library incompatibility (wrong 
libGL being picked, lib32 issue, etc.) or a bug in Catalyst. I used the 
installer script and made sure everything is in place manually.
