Unbounded recursion in _XimParseStringFile() when parsing include files [CVE-2013-2004 2/2]
parseline() can call _XimParseStringFile() which can call parseline() which can call _XimParseStringFile() which can call parseline() .... eventually causing recursive stack overflow and crash. Limit is set to a include depth of 100 files, which should be enough for all known use cases, but could be adjusted later if necessary.
