could you please add a line that explains why 128 ?

There are 128 possible events in the X11 protocol, due to:

     Every event contains an 8-bit type code. The most significant bit in
     this code is set if the event was generated from a SendEvent request.

leaving 7 bits for the event id.

Somehow we don't seem to have ever made a MAXEVENTS #define for that, at
least I can't find one in the headers.
