Is that even possible? I'd have to tell gdb to exit from the
XQueryPointer function in the main thread any time it stops the program
- whether I just attached it, or hit Ctrl-C, or the program hit a
breakpoint in some other thread. I've no idea how to do that.

I've debugged the same program in Windows and OS X - and neither OS has
this problem.

Also, the documentation for XQueryPointer does not say that it can block
forever. So I think it's a bug.
