If you mean that xcb_wait_for_reply(cookie) will return 2 differents
reply in some case, then my patch is bad.

I did not know that. Reading the libxcb source show something like that actually. :)

What bothers me is that I alway assumed one request would have one
reply, but if it can has multiple, how do you know how many it has? It
is something written in the spec, or can be arbitrary?
