DOUBLE-BUFFER extension is enabled and running on my system. 

I made some experiments disabling it in the config file and restarting X. 
Checked it's presence with "xdpyinfo | grep DOUBLE-BUFFER" and it was missing.

Then the ugly flashing artifacts disappeared from Dillo and with buffered_drawing=2
the flickering still appears, visually similar to that of buffered_drawing=1, 
but much less intrusive.

All tests are made by loading some page in the browser and then dragging
the window edge in order to resize the window.
