Thanks for reporting this.

This is rather puzzling, as the change in 1.17.1-5 was not directly 
related to how windows are rendered.

Can you provide some more details?  e.g. an XWin.0.log so I can see if 
that shows anything unusual? Are these local X clients?

You might also like to try the latest snapshot [1] to see if that 
behaves any differently.
