Summary:                    xfce4-session crashes when you send long strings over the network
Description: 
Sending long(?) strings over the network port it opens will crash it.
I tried different amounts of A's and made it crash every time.
Should it be like this? what hosts does it parse data from? heh, this
could be a buffer-overflow(?), didnt check it closer on

Well, the port is opened by libICE and is under control of libICE, so in
general theres not much I can do about it. Anyways, could you please post
a backtrace of the crash?
