Last October I forwarded your report to the X Consortium, which
maintains and distributes most of the programs which use the X Window
System.  I just tried your example right now and still get the
erroneous result, so they haven't given us a fix yet.

In future, you should direct these questions to bugs@athena.mit.edu.
Thanks.
