Actually, the problem DOES occur with the stock Nautilus patterns as
well - make the window size SMALLER than the dimensions of the stock
background tile image, close and re-open the Nautilus window and you
will see the rendering issue. I noted this on my EeePC701 with its
diminutive screen dimensions when I resized a window small enough to
only fit in two icons, closed it, reopened it and then scrolled.

The black (or corrupted) areas of the background you will observe match
the dimensions of the background image exactly, ie: a background
1024x768 in size inside a Nautilus window 640x480 in size will have
black/corruption from pixel 641 through to 1024 horizontally and pixel
481 to 768 vertically. When the background wraps, it will render
correctly, but again only to the original 640x480 dimensions of the
window where it will black/corrupt again.

Make the window larger, then close it and re-open it and the
black/corruption is gone (simply because the background image dimensions
are smaller than that of the window, so it therefore tiles properly
now).

I've observed this in Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10. The black appears in
Virtualbox and Intel gfx adapters and full-on corrupted/copied chunks of
video memory appear in place of the black when using NVidia gfx
adapters.
