Actually now when I attache I get endless forks: (edited back trace)
#0  __fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pt-fork.c:26
#1  Popen (command=0x43a6340 "\"/usr/bin/xkbcomp\"
-w 1 \"-R/usr/share/X11/xkb\" -xkm \"-\" -em1 \"The XKEYBOARD keymap
compiler (xkbco

the X server\" \"/var/lib/xkb/server-"..., type=0x5877e5 "w") at

#5  Dispatch at dispatch.c:447

So my current issue is not related, sorry for the noise.
