Looks good in Precise, waiting for Trusty package so I could tag it as
verification-done.

Bug description:

  [Impact]

  Due to a bug in GTK+2, mate-display-properties crashes when the screen
  resolution is changed *outside* of it (e.g. by changing the resolution
  not via that app, but somewhere else).

  The attached patches fix the issue in GTK+2 and prevent crashing of
  m-d-p.

  Since this issue caused much inconvenience for users, the fix should
  be backported to all current stable releases of Ubuntu.

  [Test Case]

  The easiest way to reproduce it is via Virtualbox:

  1. Run mate-display-properties in the VM.
  2. Make the VM go full-screen.
  3. See m-d-p crash.

  [Regression Potential]

  After several months of testing the patched version of GTK+2 in Debian Jessie, I found no regressions.
  I consider the regression risk very low here.

  There were originally some bugs with a few applications (notably
  Spotify) crashing. We think we've backported patches to fix that -
  some refcounting issues - but please check a few apps to see they
  still work.
