Description Torrey T. Lyons 2004-03-19 18:05:32 UTC 
Mac OS X 10.1.x apparently has a thread safety bug in its version of AppKit. Unfortunately this results 
in a frequent lock up when creating windows because they are not created in the main thread. The 
following message is outputted to the console when this happens:

*** Assertion failure in popState(), NSViewHierarchyLock.m:512
Invalid parameter not satisfying: th->topOfStack >= 0

This makes the Xserver unusable on Mac OS X 10.1.x. A patch to work around this problem is attached.

Could you please apply this to the XORG-RELEASE-1 branch, please?
