[Xquartz-dev] libX11 compilation

[Ben Byer]

It does -- see xcb_connect in http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5/X11libs-16/libxcb/libxcb-1.0/src/xcb_util.c 
.

However, like I said -- I never tested it.  I made the patch because I  
was having a hard time getting the Xtrans patch working, but at some  
point after I had already made that patch, I got the Xtrans code  
working, so we just used it instead. :/
