[Xcb] problem when compiling xcb

Hey, thanks for the reports. Sounds like you both have the same problem,
and since I haven't seen it myself I'm guessing you're both using GCC
3.4, or perhaps you're both using an old glibc, or something along those
lines.

I'm guessing that this is due to my use of the __thread storage class
modifier in xcb/src/xcb_conn.c. I'd already had a report that this
breaks GCC 2.95. Fortunately, that variable is only supporting an
assertion and can be safely removed.

Could you two try removing the line
	static __thread int already_here = 0;
and all the references to the variable "already_here" in the
_xcb_conn_wait function, and let me know whether XCB compiles
successfully for you then?

Thanks!
