I can confirm this, somehow. In TL '09 and '10 the greyish background picture is shifted out towards the left, its right edge is in the middle. In later releases the background picture's left edge is kind of aligned with the left edge of the text, so it's shifted out to the right (and then pushed in, when the text grows).
<<inline: 2009.jpg>>
<<inline: 2011.jpg>>
(My background picture is not wide enough and I am not using an eso-pic option
make it fill the whole text width. This explains the 2009 + 2010 white gap
between the greyish picture and the text.)
Here is an overview of the packages used in those TeX Live releases:

Fahad, in case you don't know how to create those file lists, it's the command
\listfiles, for example put as first line, even before \documentclass{article}.
