FWIW I think it's with the X libs in sarge, because I often have
troubles when I ssh -X from a RedHat box to my sarge box, then to my sid
box.
So the sid X server isn't involved here.
My problems are sometimes X errors, but more often "wrong pixmaps", i.e.
some GTK widgets are displaying the wrong icon, or some random portion
of another pixmap.
