--- Comment #3 from Mark B <mark.blakeney at bullet-systems.net> ---
OK, I am 100% sure that the patch fixes this crash. I tested again today and
found that, without the patch, I can cause the crash just by opening and
closing the skype window repeatedly. It happens about one in six times. It
never happens with the patch enabled. In fact, I also later added an ErrorF()
message for the else ClientGone case and I do occasionally see that message in
my journal when repeating this test, just to prove that it really is catching
the fault condition.

I think this is a priority bug. Skype call that a "Beta" version but it is the
current official skype client so this crash affects everybody who uses GNOME on
Wayland with skype.
