I don't know.

It doesn't bother us, because we don't use this input method, but it
hits users of our software. We tell them to set GTK_IM_MODULE to
something so it doesn't use ibus, that works around it and they don't
mind doing it. So the truth is that it is not a show stopper for us.

Since it was fixed in the project itself more than two years ago, we
kind of forgot about it. Our users probably have it somewhare in their
initialization files and forgot about it too.

Title:
  X IO Error : Using g_idle_add_full inside ibus_im_context_focus_in
  instead of gdk_threads_add_idle_full

Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a bug in ibus-gtk2 version 1.4, libray /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
  gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules/im-ibus.so is in Ubuntu 12.04.

  It causes "random" X IO errors , because it is a multithreading bug.

  I reported it already to the ibus project at
   http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1505&thanks=1505&ts=1346933625, but it is a show stopper for us so we want a fast fix.

  ibus_im_context_focus_in in ibus/client/gtk2/ibusimcontext.c uses
  g_idle_add_full with a callback that call GDK functions, so it call
  them without the GDK lock.

  It should use instead gdk_threads_add_idle_full to make the callback
  run with a lock.

  Got broken by this commit
  https://github.com/ibus/ibus/commit/279ee5d5b3697b427cc22cd99a55f4e611318e25#client/gtk2/ibusimcontext.c

  Broken in ibus-gtk2 1.4, still ok in 1.3.
