Keith's Xrender patch listed on:

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173204

fixes this issue.  I am using xfree86 4.2.1 (with patched libXrender
from fcpackage), freetype 2.1.3, xft 2.1, fontconfig 2.1, glibc 2.2.5,
and mozilla 1.2.1 (all built on debian woody).

Is that Xrender code going to be in XFree86 4.3?
