Christian Linhart 9bce1f72e3 move symbol lookup of sumof expr to the parser
replace the complicated symboltable lookup for sumof expr
by accessing the lenfield of the expr-object.

This requires the corresponding patch for xcb/proto
which sets the lenfield accordingly.

This should be OK because for official releases we define
that dependency in the build system.

For getting versions off the HEAD of the git repo, it should
be obvious that xcb/proto and xcb/libxcb have to be updated together.

I have tested this patch and it generates exactly the same code
as before.

About libxcb
============

libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which
replaces the current Xlib interface. It has several advantages over
Xlib, including:
- size: small, simple library, and lower memory footprint
- latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later
- direct protocol access: interface and protocol correspond exactly
- proven thread support: transparently access XCB from multiple threads
- easy extension implementation: interfaces auto-generated from XML-XCB

Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make
requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB.
However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most
benefit from a native XCB port.
