If an application continually paints to a component it will eventually
fail with an error message:

Xlib: resource ID allocation space exhausted!

when run under the JDK-1.1.2 for Solaris.

It would appear the problem is linked to creating and destroying
Graphics objects on every repaint. Each graphics object probably
is causing an Xlib GC to be created, and eventually Xlib runs
out of resource ids.

This is obviously a X11 / Solaris only problem.
