Xlib: maximum number of clients reached

[Stuart Kreitman]

Geoff:

1024 clients is a feature of Xsun which has not been ported to Xorg, 
much less pushed upstream.
Since Xsun is not open source, I can't simply throw the code over the 
wall, but I can put the port to Xorg
on the project list for our group.
