Well, yes, but it ought to work regardless of the xorg.conf setting,

Composite internally, which is always available, so we just blindly
ignore the config setting and give you backing store if you ask for it.
There may be bugs, I freely admit, but it's definitely meant to work.
If it doesn't it's probably a bug in X and I'll fix it, so hook me up
with test packages and I'll take a look.
I've uploaded an x86_64 rpm here [1], the srpm is here [2]. To reproduce
the problem, first download the foil gometry [3], then run xfoil from a
terminal, and type

load Naca63412.dat

and at the following "Enter airfoil name" prompt, type

naca63412

Upon pressing enter, the Xplot11 window should open, showing the
cross-section of the foil.

The Xlib code for the plotting window is in plotlib/Xwin.c in the xfoil
source tarball.
Oh my, this is embarassing.  If only I'd deleted more code you'd never
have hit this.  Definitely a bug in xserver.  I'll send a patch upstream
and fix Fedora once that lands.  Thanks for the testcase!

Awesome, thanks!
