Re-evaluating whether we still need X11 display locking.
There is a good chance this is not true, due to our impl. level locking.
Will update you here .. or better in a bug report you may enter in our
bugzilla DB. Thank you.
I will push this change to a specific branch - hope you participate in testing.

Also you are right, the X11 spec doesn't even mention the case of subsequent
XInitThreads calls - and hence YMMV.
