Hmm. after updating to get your fix and "make cairo" I still get the same
(bad) result (with page 1 still visible underneath) for

examples/c/x02c -dev xcairo  -bg 0000FF_0.1

examples/c/x02c -dev qtwidget -bg 0000FF_01

was fine.

I haven't tried a completely clean build yet, but "make cairo" did create
a new cairo device driver so your fix should be properly built.  Do you
currently get good results for the above test with -dev xcairo?
