[cairo] Best strategy for complex screen drawing

[Jim Gettys]

Ah, you want a *working* double buffer extension...  Certainly the
extension is built in the server, and if it doesn't work, people will be
happy to consider it a bug...  I see DOUBLE-BUFFER in the list of
extensions in the server.

I have no clue if it really works off hand: ask on the xorg mailing
list....
