[Xcb] Assertion failed: (pthreadret == 0), function _xcb_in_wake_up_next_reader, file xcb_in.c, line 926.

[Luigi Salvatore Esposito]

Dear XCB developers,

following the upgrade to libxcb 1.14, we have now a crash in one of our tools (http://flair.web.cern.ch/flair/)
with the crash report at the bottom of this email.
The problem appears at this line called in frame 11:
XPutImage(self->display, self->pixmap, self->gc, self->ximage, 0, 0, 0, 0, width, height);

Comparing with the libxcb 1.13, I managed to track down the issue to the variable “total_read” defined in xcbint.h.
Indeed, with the attached patch the crash disappears.

Do you have any suggestions how to fix the problem?

For sake of completeness, libxcb is installed via MacPorts.
If needed, I can provide additional details.

Thanks a lot for your help
