The problem fixed by this patch can be reproduced on Linux with the
following steps.
- Access NULL pointer intentionally in ProcessOtherEvent on key press.
- Instead of saving core dump to a file, write it into a pipe.
echo "|/usr/sbin/my-core-dumper" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
- Dump the core by pressing a key.
While the core is being dumped into the pipe, the smart schedule timer
will cause a pending SIGALRM. Linux kernel stops writing data to the
pipe when there are pending signals. This causes the core dump to be
truncated. On my system I'm expecting a 6 MB dump but the size will be
60 kB instead. The problem is solved if we block the SIGALRM caused by
expired smart schedule timer.
I haven't been able to reproduce this problem in the following cases.
- Save core dump to a file instead of a pipe.
- kill -SEGV `pidof Xorg`
- Press a key to dump core while gdb is attached to Xorg.
- Give option -dumbSched to Xorg.
Also note that the fix works only when NoTrapSignals has the default
value FALSE. The problem can still be reproduced if error signals
aren't trapped. In addition to pending SIGALRM, there is a similar
problem with pending SIGIO from the keyboard driver during core dump.

The rootless extension now directly calls some Xplugin functions, and relies
on types defined in Xplugin.h, which isn't very abstracted :-)
This patch is a start at abstracting some of the Xplugin specific stuff which
has crept into rootlessWindow.c. This has been done in a pretty mindless fashion,
without much thought as to if the additions to the generic rootless interface are
the correct ones
There is some confusion as to if RootlesscolormapCallback() returns a Bool or
xp_error_enum value (not so abstact), but I have no way of checking, of finding
out if Xplugin actually checks the result :-)

This fixes the bug whereby we weren't drawing the contents of the root window since RootlessPaintWindowBackground got nuked.
(cherry picked from commit bb0e208787)
at CodeWeavers for the patch. From his description:
Fix a display bug with the X server. The Generic Rootless extension
installs overrides for certain GC (graphics context) operations. Within
these overrides, they temporarily uninstall themselves, perform their work,
and then reinstall themselves. Except sometimes they would return early
and wouldn't reinstall themselves when they should. Now they do in all cases.
Fix a bug in RootlessCopyWindow where early returns could leave the screen's
dispatch table entry for CopyWindow unwrapped. We think that this is
another case (hopefully the last) of the rootless drawing bug.
