There appears to be a bug in XOpenDis.c:

  Line 430 has the statement UnlockDisplay(dpy).
  There is no corresponding (preceding) LockDisplay call.

Perhaps this has been fixed in a patch?

This bug will manifest itself only when you alter the standard X
distribution by defining LockDisplay and UnlockDisplay in Xlibos.h.
