[bug #24083] Offset issues with the xmonad WM; blank windows with the cairo backend

[Yavor Doganov]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #24083 (project gnustep):

I've never used xmonad, I just installed it to test this particular problem. 
Here is what the OP replied:

"I have no idea what business has GNUstep with window borders. The
application draws into its window and the window location on the screen and
decorations are the business of the window manager.

Just set the offsets to 0 when the windows are not reparented, and if
somebody complains they can get the them calculated properly. With typical
configuration you would be at most one pixel off even if the value was
actually useful for something."

The default window border size for xmonad is 1, it seems.

The grey windows with the cairo backend are unrelated to xmonad -- the OP
says he gets the same behavior with Window Maker.  Any clues what might be the
cause?  His machine is amd64 (aka x86_64), FWIW.
