I can't look into this in depth at the moment--I'm hoping somebody
else will--but in my experience this is normally a symptom of an
earlier protocol failure. Sniffing the traffic with xscope or
Wireshark may give useful evidence. Also, please install the debug
packages for libxcb and libx11 and get new stack traces.

Most likely cause, I'd guess, is some failure to sync earlier, so the
sequence numbers are wrong. This could also happen if some request
didn't get completely sent to the server.
