I think it's in, or related to, Claude's patch. That's why I asked him
for his help, and if he could not spare the time, the patch set he
used leading up to it. I never even found out if he had them or not.

The bug is present in alpha1, which limits the likely culprits the ten
changes present in that version, nine if you don't count the workspace
patch itself. Of those, everything from the description of the patches
to debugging the actual code points at #8, the Xinerama patch as
either the cause or the trigger.

Documenting it is pointless, since the bug renders the workspace patch
null and void. Reverting the patch is a better solution, it's not that
big.
