Description Arvind Umrao 2011-10-27 03:11:37 UTC 
With gcc 4.3.3, we get relocation error R_386_GOTOFF: file .libs/xcb_conn.o: symbol error_connection. With lower version of gcc, xcb code compiles successfully. Though gcc 4.3.3 is not the mandatory requirement of xcb, but still there is possibility of improving xcb code . 

I will remove error_connection variable and use standard interface for connection errors like I did recently at libxcb patch, given to Alan to commit.
