Public bug reported:

Running Ubuntu 16.04 with the updates repository enabled, using the
Nvidia proprietary driver 367.27.

A couple of days ago there was a Unity update (7.4.0+16.04.20160705-0ubuntu1) 
which includes a commit that causes graphical glitches/corruption on the 
background of Unity panel in my triple monitor (xrandr) setup.
The result differs depending on which monitor the Panel/Dash is opened on.

Specifically, on one monitor there is a horizontal offset on the background, on 
the second one there is garbage and on the third one there is no background at 
all, making Unity completely see-through.
Additionally, when transparent, the top bar is also affected.

After downloading the source code and compiling Unity from different
commits, I have reached the conclusion that the commit which introduced
the issue is #4145 from trunk (https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-
team/unity/trunk/revision/4145).

The following links demonstrate the issue, as well as show the exact
point where the regression started occurring.
