In response to #420:

Last time I installed the backclear.patch on ATI Mobility HD3400
hardware I noticed distorted and weird pixels when opening new windows.
They disappeared as soon as contents was painted into the window.
However it suggests what the source code comments say:

+-	/*
+-	 * Copy bits from the parent into the new pixmap so that it will
+-	 * have "reasonable" contents in case for background None areas.
+-	 */

Without this patch- there are NO distorted and arbitrary colored pixels
when opening new windows. I would all this a regression (besides the
performance improvement) within ATI hardware already.

What I just did is install the patch on -intel hardware (GM965 to be
more specific) and expected to see those weird colored pixels when
opening new windows. However windows look fine upon creation.
