OK, that symlink helps a lot. xfontsel and xcalc output no errors now.
Thanks!

Ah. xfontsel and acroread were infinite looping due to a big bug in XCB.
Did I mention that making Xlib use XCB is a really good thing for XCB?
:-)

I had allocated a 256kB read buffer in XCB, and then couldn't handle
response packets bigger than that. acroread tried:

XGetImage(d=3D0, x=3D0, y=3D0, width=3D500, height=3D375, plane_mask=3D0xff=
ffffff, format=3DZPixmap)

xfontsel tried:

XListFonts(pattern=3D"-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*", maxNames=3D1)

Both produced replies that were... just a wee bit too large. I've fixed
this, and tested both apps with a 4kB buffer, and both work. I've never
been so happy to see Acrobat Reader on my screen.

mozilla still dies, though. *sigh*

Ooh, new test case: xine dies too. Apparently it tries to open two
connections, and the second time around the DISPLAY variable has gotten
reset to ""...

Yup, dillo sets its window title the way I expect now that the symlink
is in place. Yay!
