New clue on this end from user reports.  Building --with-cairo disables stipples.  Building --without-cairo yields good stipples.  Omitting any mention of Cairo among the build flags also yields good stipples (even with the same exact emacs-version).  

So something specific to the --with-cairo flag itself seems to be breaking stipples.  Very surprising.
