> Why is the special fault handler needed?
implementation of a GDI engine... basically, both the app and X11 are
used to read and write into it (each DIB is associated to an X11 pixmap,
and, for example, when the app writes to the DIB section, there's a need
to update the pixmap. on the other way aroud, GDI operation on the DIB,
are in fact done on the X11 pixmap. then modifications have to be
updated into the bits of the DIB
the fault handler is used to synchronize both accesses
