I think this is the same thing as in SUSE
JAVA apps fails with "xcb_xlib.c:50: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock'
failed"

this currently makes BOINC not work for seti@home
Comment 3 Nic Doye 2007-12-09 13:50:51 UTC 
Googling, I see that it's also been discussed on a Gentoo forum
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-613715.html 

I've come across this using MyEclipse with a non-Fedora Eclipse 3.3 installation
and also Netbeans 6.0. Both Sun Java 5 and 6 (jdk-1.5.0_13-fcs jdk-1.6.0_03-fcs
RPMs) exhibit this behaviour. However, the IcedTea version (
java-1.7.0-icedtea-devel-1.7.0.0-0.19.b21.snapshot.fc8 ) is fine in this regard.  

(Although NB 6.0 isn't actually stable on IcedTea). 

I'm no X11 expert, but there would appear to be an option that needs adding to
one of Fedora's X11 packages - the Gentoo post implies something like:

1) add "xcb" to the USE flag
2) recompile "x11-libs/libX11" 

(which maps to libxcb RPM for Fedora 8). This is identical to the fix mentioned
in the above Novell bug report.
