To quote from Adam Jackson's commit to inputproto:

C sucks: define XEventClass in terms of unsigned int, not CARD32.
Apparently pulling in Xmd.h here breaks qt, since they both define an 
INT32 type (and incompatible ones even, since Xmd's is unsigned long on 
ILP32 because whoever wrote Xmd.h is a C novice).

Good idea, but I think the above sounds like adopting a 
what-breaks-gets-fixed policy is the most realistic option. Adam 
probably has to say something enlightening.

I've filed a bug for gentoo-related discussion:

BTW, didn't you run into it?

Cheers,

Simon
