Bug#604610: xboard: crash resizing engine window

[Ian Zimmerman]

Package: xboard
Version: 4.4.3-1
Severity: normal


Resizing the Engine Output window vertically is seriously broken.

First, only the bottom half seems to be expanded when enlarging,
and only the top half seems to be shrinking when shrinking.
Eventually, when I shrank the whole window enough that the top half
vanished, the whole game crashed.  This is the tail of .xsession-errors:

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  12 (X_ConfigureWindow)
  Value in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  87921
  Current serial number in output stream:  87952
Error: Null argument to command: resize-window-interactively
