I think it's an issue at the display end. As Elijah says, if Cairo is
enabled it doesn't happen.

Reverting commit 6ea69fc7340e48cf73df351a544c1d8946395b3d seems to
make the problem go away. Cairo doesn't use the x_composite_image
function. It looks like the destination parameter is not always valid.
I had a look and it's usually populated from FRAME_X_PICTURE (s->f)
but a quick investigation left me none-the-wiser as to where THAT is
set and why it might go bad.
