test app for XkbBell misbehaving

This was recently discussed on xorg-devel : 
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2010-March/006275.html

I run 'xset -b' to disable the keyboard beep.

XBell(dpy, 0) will result in no beep, but
XkbBell(dpy, 0, 0, None) will call DDXRing() with volume=50

Attached is a test app.  Run like:
./bell 0
./bell 1
