** Description changed:

- Xorg may crash if a gesture is started while the window tree is being
- modified. This includes windows being unmapped or reparented.
+ Maverick Xorg gesture handling writes events to clients in signal
+ context. This causes corruption and eventual X server crash.
  
  ====================
  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I have X crashes a couple of times a day.
  Could not reproduce it deterministically.
