This is resolved ... at least for now.  I'm still not sure exactly what was going on, but I was running VNC and the symptoms started, then I verified their continuation without VNC, then I tried installing 2.3.0-rc3, which gave me completely unrelated errors.  It wasn't until I reinstalled 2.2.1 and rebooted (instead of just logging out and back in) that things began working reliably again.  I then reinstalled 2.3.0-rc3 and that also seems to be working.

So, this is a long winded way of saying sorry for the noise.  My guess is that something got out of whack, either when I installed 2.2.1 after the upgrade, or during the use of VNC.  If it happens again, I'll try and capture more details. 

BTW:  So far 2.3.0-rc3 seems to be working reliably ... I think you asked for feedback, although, it was a week or so ago.

Again, try with 2.3.0-rc3 ... the threading issues were significantly improved in the changes I made to the 1.4 server.

I am getting the same symptoms even without the dual monitors.  This appears
to be similar to a problem with XQuartz that appeared to have been fixed (I
think it was bug #42).  The bug had appeared to go away with the
installation of X11.pkg 2.2.1, but seems to be coming back with the latest
Mac OS upgrade.  Note: I reinstalled X11.pkg 2.2.1, so it is not just that
the OS delivery overwrote my X11 upgrade.

The problem appears to be a hang ta __xp_async_dequeue again ... I can send
a new stack trace if it will help.

That's my problem.  It does this whenever I need it most.    I have a mac
pro, and therefore can't disconnect my screens......

I am also a dual head and spaces user.  My guess is its something
about losing its focus with Dual head....

And it all went away again.  Feh.  I quit and restarted X11.

I have the same issue.  It just disappears but the windows are

visible.  What is your video setup?

This is on a 2 GHz Core2Duo Black Macbook (2nd gen?).  When I reboot
the box yesterday, it was running with just the internal LCD, today,
when I got to work, I hooked up an external LCD Panel to it to run
dual-headed.  It worked long enough this morning for me to open 3
xterms and maximize them, I didn't notice the problem until I went
back to select some text and my mouse pointer stayed as a pointer
rather than the vertical bar for text selection.  Now, when the mouse
moves over the red/yellow/green buttons on the top left of the
xterms,
they don't change like they should, clicking on them doesn't do
anything.
 Using spaces?

Yes, I run spaces, but I leave all the X11 bits on the same space.
