[Intel-gfx] TODO list (XAA -> EXA growing pains)

Hi,

It looks like people are in the process of dealing with some XAA -> EXA 
growing pains (bug #13389).  I'd just like to bring up another bug that 
cropped up as a result of the XAA -> EXA switch:

Under Cedega (although surprisingly not under vanilla wine..), users 
aren't able to run any programs at all due to the following bailout:

X Error of failed request:  BadImplementation (server does not implement 
operation)
   Major opcode of failed request:  146 (MIT-SHM)
   Minor opcode of failed request:  5 (X_ShmCreatePixmap)
   Serial number of failed request:  3545
   Current serial number in output stream:  3554
X Error of failed request:  BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window 
parameter)
   Major opcode of failed request:  55 (X_CreateGC)
   Resource id in failed request:  0x360034e
   Serial number of failed request:  3550
   Current serial number in output stream:  3554

To fix this I've recommended that people switch back to XAA.  This 
alleviates the issue.  The bug is certainly present in the 2.2.x and 2.3.x 
drivers.

Is this a known issue or should I file a bug report?  (I don't see much in 
bugs.freedesktop.org).
