I didn't mean for you to close your message.
We took different approaches to fixing the bug: I applied a patch, and
you updated the package.
The big difference is that your patch doesn't avoid changing the
xorg-server-for-tests package, so it can't be applied to master.
I'm merging the two tickets. I think that updating the package is a
better choice that simply patching it. I'll probably join our two
patches together and push that.
