On small screens segfaults could be also triggered without any icons on dtfile
startup if dtwm panel (or part of it) was registered beyond the screen when
RegisterInGrid() was called by InitializeDesktopGrid().
The patch also makes grid registration work for large objects (larger than
2 cells in any direction, like dtwm panel or icon with long file name).
Previously only rectangle vertices were registered.
There was a check in linux.cf for the Linux libc version that didn't
work, since these were never set anywhere. Presumably current Xorg
imake sets these, but since we aren't using that... (yet)
As a result, the build assumed that thread-safe API's were not
supported. Setting the default libc major version to '6' allows the
proper build to take place. libc5 was never threadsafe and no one has
probably used it in over 10 years.
As a result, some earlier porting fixes that referenced '__fds_bits'
on linux systems had to be reverted as these are not valid in an MT
environment. They are also not neccessary when building in such an
environment, as the normal 'fds_bits' works fine.
This patch defintely needs testing on many linux systems.
On some systems with libtcl installed, it might be linked into instant
rather than the locally provided version. This can result in random
coredumps.
Seen on Ubuntu 12.04, x86_64.
Now, we force linking with ../tcl/libtcl.a.
In init() there was code iterating over all of the possible file
descriptors in a svc_fdset. fdsets are limited to FD_SETSIZE. This
caused coredumps on FreeBSD 10, and possibly other hidden issues.
Moving to poll(), rather than select() would be better, but is a bigger
job. For now, just limit to the FD_SETSIZE that select() requires.
With this patch, it is no longer neccessary to create the
/imports/x11/include/X11 symlink...
Also, remove the include of xfree86.cf from linux.cf, and define our
own DefaultCCOptions. Setup to use only -ansi, not -pendantic.
