Thanks Marko!

I have this (committed earlier) as:
commit 0701a18b51213ae588cbe82069c0b6eefb8deae7

    DIX: Set backgroundState correctly for root window
    
    When we change the root window's background to None, and we've run with
    -wr or -br for a forced solid background, make sure we also change the
    background state to BackgroundPixel, so we don't try to lookup either
    pScreen->whitePixel or pScreen->blackPixel as a pixmap.

It should be in the master branch of
git://people.freedesktop.org/~daniels/xserver.

Yeah, it's a bit of a clanger, and most distros seem to run with either
-wr or -br, so this would be a great stable candidate.  Let's give it a
quick run in master and see if it doesn't destroy anything.

Cheers,
Daniel
