<pre><span class="quote">> And a workaround for a bug which was fixed ~7 years ago definitly got my attention.</span >
You need to recalibrate your compatibility timescales to deal with X. :)
Removing a workaround for a real bug breaks compatibility with those older X
servers, and that doesn't seem worth doing just to reduce code size a tiny bit.
Unless you can show some real problem with retaining this code, I think we
should keep this workaround indefinitely.</pre>
