Hi,
I had a discussion with John Palmieri on IRC about this some hours
before 1.0 release and if I didn't misunderstand him completely this is
intended behaviour.

Below are the relevant parts of the explanation why abort() is called:

> Nov 10 00:35:44 <J5> there are similar X warnings when the client uses

Bye

PS: AFAIK at least hal and avahi seem to be fixed to not break with this
now
