For those of you not aware XFree86 3.2 has been released it fixes some
security problems such as:

     * A security problem related to the X server's lock files has been
       fixed.
     * Some buffer overrun problems which can lead to security problems
       have been fixed in libXt and libX11. At least one of these
     * The xdm security fix from the X Consortium's R6 fix-13 is
       included.

And many other things. BTW, if you are looking for security holes and
buffer overflows may I suggest you look at the X libraries for
inspiration.
