Hi,

This is XNextEvent()(_XReadEvents() and _XSend() ) bug, it affect 
7.10/8.04/8.10, 
Debian Lenny and some other distro(using XOrg 7.2 - ).

I have dirty patch and reported to upsteream in another time(but XOrg
does not respond).

 - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17923

 - This XNextEvent() bug breaks backward-compatilibility, 
    Old style X apps will be eliminate by this bug. (e.g. IIIMF).

Adove patch were tested by us(Ubuntu Japanese LoCo) and some Japanese users,
it works fine.
