[Pixman] Op. when compositing

[Eric Nicolas]

Hello, Thanks for your answer.

Below is a small test program (works on little endian machines).

As is the result is already strange to me :
     in: r=20 g=20 b=80 a=FF
     out: r=90 g=90 b=C0 a=FF
Where as I expected the fill color #FFFFFFFF x the mask 0x80 = #FFFFFF80
and so an output of #9090FFFF.

However, if I set the fill color to #FFFFFF80, the result seems really
wrong :
in: r=20 g=20 b=80 a=FF
out: r=98 g=98 b=E0 a=FF

I would expect fill x mask => #FFFFFF40 and thus out: #606060C0FF.

I especially do not understand how a lower alpha input color can end up in
a lighter output on the target image.

What I am doing wrong here ?

Thanks.
