Yes! Thanks. :-)

Though I'd like to encourage people with libX11 bugs that might be
XCB-related to CC xcb at lists.freedesktop.org, when filing them in
Bugzilla. That helps ensure that XCB experts see them.

I was just grumpy that if I see an Ubuntu bug related to XCB, it's
often full of negative comments. If what's really going on is that
you're protecting me from your users' wrath, then thank you. :-)
