    Problem Text

    XWindowAttributes.backing_planes is defined as a unsigned long, even
    though only the significant 32 bits are used or transported. On
    our implementation, the value set in backing_planes is not sign extended
    and thus does not compare properly to -1. There is no indication that
    this data should be sign extended in the X Library Specification.

    This change is made so that the test only examines the significant bits.
