Hi,

It is strange ...
As it seen in diff output process is complaining about  _ZNK8X_window5x_mapEv at Base 3.6.1-1~ line and wants to replaced by totally same string.
I double checked clxclient repo if there is some typo in libclxclient3.symbols.amd64 file e.g. some redundant space etc.,
but nothing like this.

hmm.. how to fix it?

I did a test build here on amd64 machine in pbuilder without any warning or error message. 

regards
