I remember GtkCairo having this issue earlier, but it is countered by
translating the CTM in the expose handler shifted according to the
event that
occurs. I assume this is with the xlib backend and not the glitz backend,
can anyone else confirm this,. and under what circumstances it occurs?
Version of gtk+ would be good to know as well.
