Subject: [PATCH 07/40] CVE-2014-0210: unvalidated length in
 _fs_recv_conn_setup() from xorg/lib/libXfont commit
 891e084b26837162b12f841060086a105edde86d

The connection setup reply from the font server can include a list
of alternate servers to contact if this font server stops working.

The reply specifies a total size of all the font server names, and
then provides a list of names. _fs_recv_conn_setup() allocated the
specified total size for copying the names to, but didn't check to
make sure it wasn't copying more data to that buffer than the size
it had allocated.
