Qt5 applications crash with libxcb 1.9.3-1

Let's take this simple Qt5 program:

#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	QApplication app(argc, argv);
}

Here is the backtrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

(gdb) bt

   from /usr/lib/libQt5Widgets.so.5
#12 0x0000000000400653 in main ()

If I use libxcb from [extra] (1.9.1), the Qt5 applications run as expected.

I'm on x86_64, using qt5-base 5.1.1-5, libxcb 1.9.3-1.

Re: Qt5 applications crash with libxcb 1.9.3-1

I'm rebuilding Qt5. Anyway I think this could be a bug in xcb (looks like an API breakage to me).
