Hello

I've hit the bug too and already posted a testcase.
For now, I get around it by just clipping arround my image.
According to my test, the image, though tiled, is not duplicated inside the 
PDF, so it may be a PDF procedural tiling, not from cairo. Maybe, the pdf 
backend sets a wrong flag in the PDF file ?

Sincerely,

Romuald.
