Ahh.. And this is presumably triggered either by some new Xorg behavior in 
fc9 or just the scheduler timing changes that caused other things too?

Your suggested solution sounds ok, but I'm also wondering why those things 
aren't properly refcounted? It does sound like a bug to free the thing 
before all users are gone - regardless of anything else. Hmm?

But the ungrab sounds like the best short-term fix. Do we have a patch for 
testing? Please? It's pretty late in the 2.6.25 cycle for these kinds of 
things..
