Hello,

There is a problem with XMapWindow and XUnmapWindow handling - when they
are called too fast one after another, the window just disappears. This
is the cause of disappearing window in official binary builds of mozilla
and probably also in new Adobe Reader 7.

Sample code triggering the bug is attached. The created window is
visible for one second, then disappears forever. After uncommenting the
delay between map and unmap, the window vanishes for 1 second, then
appears again.
