There were a number of fixes to length checks in XEvIE, especially in
byte-swapped requests from other-endian clients, that landed in the master
branch last year - I'm not sure if any of them made it to a release before XEvIE
support was removed from Xorg 1.6 though.   If you want to try them, you could
find patches in these commits:
