This kind of error is almost certainly caused by multiple threads in Xlib.
 Graphics operation can happen from any thread.  It is only widget
operations that need to execute in the UI thread.  
Sorry. I've just realized the meaning of this. Are you
saying, that in SWT it is OK to call org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC/Image/Font
methods from any thread? Does Eclipse use this feature?
 
I've just checked - and there are no thread check calls
in the methods of these classes. If so, I'll have to check if Fox allows
this.
