Daphne Pfister f1405d9fe4 Fix poll() if POLLIN == ROLLRDNORM|POLLRDBAND 
It seems like POLLIN is specified as equivalent to POLLRDNORM | POLLRDBAND. Some
systems (e.g. QNX and HP-UX) take this literaly and have POLLIN defined as the
above bit combination. Other systems (e.g. Linux) have POLLIN as just a single
bit.

This means that if no out-of-band data is available (which should never be the
case), the result of poll() will not fulfil (fd.revents & POLLIN) == POLLIN on
QNX, because the POLLRDBAND bit is not set.

In other words, even though poll() signaled that the fd is readable, xcb would
not read from the file descriptor.

Fix this by checking if any bits from POLLIN are set in the result of poll(),
instead of all of them.

(This change was independently done by seanb@qnx.com as well)

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.


Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker,

Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list:
