With cvs today (the 15th), everything I've tested is drawing correctly.
Performance with xcompmgr running is pretty good, BUT without xcompmgr
running it's really poor - scrolling in gnome-terminal is so slow it's
completely unusable and moving windows around is all "skip-n-jump".
xcompmgr also crashes with these two errors every now and then:

[rvv at tentacle125 xcompmgr]$ ./xcompmgr -c
error 9 request 158 minor 1 serial 23590
Aborted
[rvv at tentacle125 xcompmgr]$ ./xcompmgr -c
error 3 request 157 minor 6 serial 172255
Aborted
