I'm not sure if there are any other QT based apps having similar issues.
I seem to doubt it's the fact that myth was coded a particular way to

I've further narrowed down when the problem was introduced by using
historical builds and upgrading small subsets of packages.
The package that caused it to break was xserver-xorg-core.

2:1.6.0-0ubuntu1.
