I also recall a problem with using a win32 surface. Could be the same
thing I suppose. Haven't had the time to work out a test case. I used
a win32 similar buffer for a backbuffer and in an application showing
some gradient filled rectangles some of the rectangles didn't get
filled. I worked around it by switching to a dib surface (image surface
of course worked too). I do see cairo_surface_mark_dirty() and
cairo_surface_flush() being used in the code.

I don't regularly use a Windows system but once I get to it I'll try
to make test thingy that demonstrates the problem. Or maybe you can
Roman?

Is there a performance penalty using a dib surface instead of a regular
win32 surface?
