This function complements XSetIOErrorHandler(), allowing to override the default behavior that trusts on I/O errors never coming back (i.e. exit()ing the process). This is meant as a mechanism for Wayland compositors (that are too a X11 client + compositing manager) to unfasten seatbelts and jump through the car window. It might get lucky and land on a stack of pillows. In consequence, some functions labeled as _X_NORETURN can as a matter of fact return. So those hints were removed.
