Yes and you can't play HalfLife2 (the Linux native one) on inode64 filesystems.
Oh god locales.

Basically, if you want to break any piece of software, there's a locale for that.
This was fixed both in userspace and the kernel in 2019... the userspace fix was created in April and merged on the 3rd of September, while the kernel commit is dated Sept 18.
Userspace fix: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests...
Kernel fix: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/26b1d3b527e7
I'm unclear on why this is being sold as "no one maintains X11" and not "the kernel wants to support old versions of X11".
The mailing list post states "Fortunately, since this was committed, somebody did actually disable the userspace side by default in X11", which appears to be false (it happened first)?
