[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] vnc-tight: fix regression with libxenstore

[Peter Lieven <pl@kamp.de>]

commit 095497ff added thread local storage for the color counting
palette. Unfortunately, a VncPalette is about 7kB on a x86_64 system.
This memory is reserved from the stack of every thread and it
exhausted the stack space of a libxenstore thread.

Fix this by allocating memory only for the VNC encoding thread.
