The actual deadlock is fixed, although I still end up with a completely
blank screen when I undock my laptop. However, it's recoverable by
pressing the Fn+F7 key again, so I suspect it's not related to this and
is another symptom of my laptop faking this keypress when I undock it.

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon / check_gl_texture_size deadlock because g-s-d
  has server grab

Status in “gnome-desktop3” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-desktop3” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I've noticed for the past week or so that every time I open my laptop
  lid or press the display key, my laptop appears to lock up entirely.
  Initially, I thought this might be a compiz or X bug, as the only
  obvious way to recover is to kill my session and log in again.
  However, I did a bit of debugging this morning and this is due to the
  recent gnome-desktop change to work around bug 824099.

  What happens is:

  1) gnome-settings-daemon takes a server grab
  2) It then runs check_gl_texture_size
  3) check_gl_texture_size hangs in XOpenDisplay because g-s-d has a grab
  4) g-s-d hangs because it waits for check_gl_texture_size to exit
  5) The entire desktop appears to be locked up, because g-s-d never lets go of its grab

  This is repeatable for me - it happens every single time I open my
  laptop lid, which is a bit of an inconvenience tbh (my laptop seems to
  trigger a fake Fn+F7 keypress when this happens, which is another
  matter)

  If you're curious, this is where g-s-d hangs (sorry, I didn't have
  gnome-desktop symbols installed for this one, but the missing symbol
  in frame 9 is screen_update):
