[Xquartz-dev] Line drawing in 1.5 and 1.6 servers

Ok, I think I found the cause and a hackish workaround for this issue...

The problem stems from the fact that the core/common X server code no  
longer has hooks for paintWindowBorder and paintWindowBackground.

We were using those hooks for correcting alpha values as well as  
handling cases like this.  After the core X developers nuked those  
callbacks a while back, I went through and fixed hacked the alpha  
values back into place, but I missed this particular problem.

I have a bit of a hack to get functionality back in place, but it's  
not elegant.  I'm going to try finding a better solution for all of  
this.  I essentially resurrected some code that had been punted and  
found a place to put it into the pipe, but my guess is that there's a  
better location for it.
