I've recently rebuilt blender and it doesn't start.
So I've gone backward through commit history until this:

[Bf-blender-cvs] [3a08153d7a8] master: DRW: Refactor to support draw call batching

which prevents blender to start.

when run in console, blender gives this error message:
Received X11 Error:

error code:   8
request code: 154
minor code:   34
error text:   BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)

Received X11 Error:
