Hi Martin,

My hunch is that the white is actually "nothing" rather than  
"white" ... the default color if we were to put nothing there is  
white... so I think some blt just isn't happening and somewhere in the  
pipe, the ball is getting dropped, but I have no idea "where" in the  
pipe that is and haven't done much research into it just yet.  I've  
been more concerned with (1) fixing issues in the 1.4 server, (2)  
getting X11 building into another prefix for SnowLeopard, and (3)  
figuring out some bugs with the build system that are causing me  
headaches under SnowLeopard (hence the 2.4.1-alpha1 delay).
