Segfault in libwayland-server if view_created returns false with certain views #80

I have found that if view_created (my version here) returns false when my background program is initializing (here is the relevant bit of that code) then I get a segfault deep within libwayland-server.

I tested this by modifying the function to always return false and the only time the segfault was triggered was when I tried to run way-cooler-bg.

Not sure if wlc bug, or a weird wayland bug. I think if I modify the background program this might work, because it seems like it might have to do with how it's rendered that's causing the issues.

EDIT: Here's the backtrace from gdb, I can compile libwayland-server with debug symbols if you think that would help (already did with wlc):

#0  0x00007ffff6e0cdd3 in epoll_wait () at /usr/lib/libc.so.6

And a pastebin of the entire log, with all debugging turned on for wlc.
