As I commented, I've had this on -STABLE as well.

My guess is that this is GPU dependent.  I'm using an old card:

Yes, but this has nothing to do with the bug.  Clearly Marisuz and I
have the configuration correct, but something has changed in the last

Marisuz, as I commented, your log wasn't appended to the message I
