Subject: [PATCH] xt: Work around a compiler issue with gcc 10

GRABEXT() is used to look up a pointer that sometimes lives just past
the end of an XtServerGrabRec. Whether it's really there or not depends
on XtServerGrabRec::hasExt. In a couple of places, we build those
structs on the stack and pass them to other functions; such structs
always have hasExt == 0, so GRABEXT would never get called in practice.
However, there exists a bug in gcc 10 - more or less difficult to hit,
depending on your compiler options and architecture - where it would not
notice that the dereference after GRABEXT is dead code, at which point
it looks like you're dereferencing one past the end of the array, which
is illegal, and you you get:

    PassivGrab.c:292:35: error: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds
    of 'XtServerGrabRec[1]' {aka 'struct _XtServerGrabRec[1]'}
    [-Werror=array-bounds]

As a completely stupid workaround, build those on-stack structs as
arrays of two, so that the (dead) dereference looks like it's pointing
into the dummy member of the array. This is almost certainly a compiler
bug and I don't encourage merging this patch upstream, but if you need
to build libXt with gcc 10 absolutely right this second, here it is.

For details on the gcc issue, see:
