If the "compat" buffer has previously been truncated, there will be
unused space in the buffer. The code uses this space, but does not
update the number of valid entries in the buffer.
In the best case, this leads to the new compat entries being ignored. In the
worst case, if there are any "skipped" compat entries, the number of
valid entries will be corrupted, potentially leading to a buffer read
overrun when processing a future request.
Set the number of used "compat" entries when re-using previously
allocated space in the buffer.

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the
current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients. The X server
or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory,
so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of
time. The default keymap for any server is usually stored in:
X<num>-default.xkm
where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes
it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same
directory.
Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on
different hosts could cause problems.
