openbsd-ports/net/synergy/patches/patch-lib_platform_CXWindowsEventQueueBuffer_cpp
pvalchev ab8e840802 Unbreak synergy after the X11 Xlib -> XCB switch, which
caused multi-second pauses for each event rendering it useless,
due to queueing in xcb buffers not triggering X file descriptor
changes.
Patch from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257794

OK & hint in the right direction from maintainer dim@ :)
