"Also, some X servers, (mostly for laptop chipsets), have buggy implementations of the special background drawing mode Liquid uses to align stipples really fast.

It has been confirmed that they do not have this problem with the stipples turned off, which starting in version 0.9.3 doesn't use this special background mode - X11ParentRelative. I've started rewriting all the code to no longer use this mode.
