[Bug 182038] Re: Black rectangle instead of image in FF3 [Hardy]

[Bryce Harrington]

Patch to switch to turn off offscreen pixmaps when using XAA.  This is
the exact patch used by Fedora.

The XAAOffscreenPixmaps feature seems to be an early optimization trick
that never really worked right; often it resulted in *worse* performance
than having no optimization at all.  So most distros turn it off, using
a patch like this one.  As extensively discussed above, the trick could
also introduce some severe visual glitches, and these are resolved by
switching the option off.

This patch is uploaded to the queue for release team approval.
