Reassigning to xorg/Library since it's Xlib which hangs.

For where it hangs:
xcb_io.c, line 615, function _XReply() contains:

            /* If some thread is already waiting for events,
             * it will get the first one. That thread must
             * process that event before we can continue. */
            /* FIXME: That event might be after this reply,
             * and might never even come--or there might be
             * multiple threads trying to get events. */
            while(dpy->xcb->event_waiter)
            { /* need braces around ConditionWait */
                ConditionWait(dpy, dpy->xcb->event_notify);
            }

This comment is correct. The event waiter really is waiting for an event but
none is coming in.
