+// Bug 1271100
+// We need to trick system Cairo into not using the XShm extension due to
+// a race condition in it that results in frequent BadAccess errors. Cairo
+// relies upon XShmQueryExtension to initially detect if XShm is available.
+// So we define our own stub that always indicates XShm not being present.
+// mozgtk loads before libXext/libcairo and so this stub will take priority.
+// Our tree usage goes through xcb and remains unaffected by this.
+//
+// This is also used to force libxul to depend on the mozgtk library. If we
+// ever can remove this workaround for system Cairo, we'll need something
+// to replace it for that purpose.
