Re: Cairo crash with a simple stroke (win32)

After some additionnal debugging, it appears that the raw data pointer
(unsigned char *data;) in the destination image surface for the
compositor is invalid, hence the crash. I have not been able to find
out where this comes from yet (the multiple casts throughout the code
does not make easy for a newcomer to track this field in the image
surface). All I can say is it is valid when the fallback image for the
surface is created, at the beginning of the cairo_stroke call.

Does anybody have any clue? I feel a bit lonely on this issue :).

Thanks,

Fred.
