The latest update of xserver-xorg-core breaks Eclipse with the following error:

The program 'Eclipse' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 939 error_code 11 request_code 150 minor_code 5)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

It may also apply to other Java-based (or SWT-toolkit based) applications, not sure.

xserver-xorg-core 1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8.1
Eclipse 3.3.1
java version "1.6.0_03"
Ubuntu Gutsy 32bit
