This is the same issue as https://bugs.debian.org/1087418, for which I have
proposed a patch (possibly the same thing as https://bugs.debian.org/921657
too, it's not 100% clear).

I'd prefer to keep all three places touched by commit 36fcefcf consistent
with each other.

The addition of "-e /proc/self/fd/2" can be reverted if it's a problem
for someone's workflow (that will make any subsequent Xvfb crashes equally
frustrating to debug, but hopefully there won't be any for a while).

The addition of "-screen 0 1024x768x24" (via "-s") can be reverted if
desired, now that Xvfb isn't using the crashing version of libunwind
on armhf.

The addition of "-a" I think we should keep.

The addition of "-noreset" (again via "-s") I think we should keep.

The same goes for any other GNOME package affected by this.
