This was the wrong fix to the problem, and it triggered a change in XKB behavior: previously a button event would unlock a latched modifier, now it doesn't anymore. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73155 Note that the new behavior is is strictly spec compliant but we've had the other behavior for a long time so we shouldn't break it. The bug this patch originally fixed was a null-pointer dereference when releasing button events on server shutdown. This was addressed by the commit below, so the need for this patch has gone away anyway. commit3e4be4033aAuthor: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net> Date: Fri Jan 25 11:47:32 2013 +1000 dix: when shutting down slave devices, shut down xtest devices last This reverts commit2decff6393.

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the
current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients. The X server
or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory,
so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of
time. The default keymap for any server is usually stored in:
X<num>-default.xkm
where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes
it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same
directory.
Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on
different hosts could cause problems.
