Steam was broken by 155e017.

I believe the problem was that libGLX (from /run/opengl-drivers-32) is built against libxcb 1.13, but an incompatible version was being loaded from steamrt.

(cherry picked from commit 30008a1)

Fixes #47932.  On 18.09 we still have libxcb 1.12, but I expect the
change will help with mixing versions, and it seems safe anyway.
