             Bug #: 42304
           Summary: relocation error with gcc  4.3.3 : R_386_GOTOFF: file
                    .libs/xcb_conn.o: symbol error_connection
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: XCB
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Library
        AssignedTo: xcb at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: arvind.umrao at oracle.com
         QAContact: xcb at lists.freedesktop.org


With gcc 4.3.3, we get relocation error R_386_GOTOFF: file .libs/xcb_conn.o:
symbol error_connection. With lower version of gcc, xcb code compiles
successfully. Though gcc 4.3.3 is not the mandatory requirement of xcb, but
still there is possibility of improving xcb code . 

I will remove error_connection variable and use standard interface for
connection errors like I did recently at libxcb patch, given to Alan to commit.
