FIXME in libgnome-desktop



I hope this is an appropriate message for this list. In
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-desktop/trunk/libgnome-desktop/gnome-rr.c?view=markup&pathrev=5424
there is a note

483 	 /* FIXME: we may need to be more discriminating in
484 	* what causes 'changed' events
485 	*/

that suggests that this may cause problems. It does, presumably
because Xorg is sending out another update message when screen_update
is being called. This is listed as an Ubuntu bug here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339228 and as a Gnome bug here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574931. There is a patch
here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxrandr/+bug/307306/comments/23.
I am not competent to say if this is the right solution, but it did
fix my problem.
