Updated: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-61

[Harold L Hunt II <huntharo at msu dot edu>]

The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-61

Changes
=======

1) winclipboardwndproc.c, winclipboardxevents.c - Attempt to fix
clipboard deadlock that was causing hangs.  The nature of the fix was
to stop calling XPeekIfEvent since it will block until the specified
type of event is seen.  Instead, we call XSync to flush output events
and wait for them to be processed, then we do our own little loop with
a call to select() using a timeout of 3 seconds from when we started
(the timeout is adjusted after each call to select()).  This should
alleviate problems with XPeekIfEvent not returning.  Finally, since we
can detect whether the SelectionNotify event has arrived now, I added
code to paste NULL to the Win32 clipboard if the X11 application never
returns any useful clipboard data; this should prevent Win32
applications from freezing when there are problems pasting from X11 to
Win32.  (Harold L Hunt II - CodeWeavers)
