Hi Dmitri!

Calling "isDisplayLocal" fires up a infinite loop. Here we call
_isDisplayLocal, which is declared as:

private static boolean _isDisplayLocal

And we don't touch it in the patch.

We are not super happy with this, but I don't see much alternatives.
This code is X11 specific anyway.

All this Font code is really sensible to this kind of infinite loops...

Cheers,
Mario
