I can confirm that:

ii  libcairo2:amd64            1.12.2-2     amd64
ii  xserver-xorg-core          2:1.12.4-3   amd64
ii  xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.1-3    amd64

is working happily for me without any corruption so far (a few hour of
running, but I'd normally see corruption immediately with the older
xserver-xorg-core) on my NVIDIA GF106.
