Description of problem:
xmodmap segfaults on some input, for example:

echo 'keycode 111 = Print' | xmodmap -

(Example stolen from freedesktop.org's bugzilla #1818.)  The problem is that the xorg-
x11-6.8.1-xmodmap-overflows.patch introduces a buffer overflow in xmodmap's 
process_line function.  Specifically, the patch introduces these lines:

+    len = strlen(buffer);
+    cp = chk_malloc(len);
+    strcpy(cp, buffer);

This is a classic C buffer overflow: the program mallocs enough space for the characters in 
the string (buffer), but not for the NUL terminator, so the strcpy writes one byte past the 
end of the buffer.

These lines would solve the problem:

+    len = strlen(buffer);
+    cp = chk_malloc(len + 1);
+    strcpy(cp, buffer);
