I cherry picked this from Daniel's tree as the mail message had been
scrambled a bit.
   db228d3..c5b72fd  master -> master

Btw, I think there's another bug in InitRootWindow:

    } else if (pScreen->canDoBGNoneRoot && bgNoneRoot) {
        pWin->backgroundState = XaceBackgroundNoneState(pWin);
        pWin->background.pixel = pScreen->whitePixel;
        backFlag |= CWBackPixmap;

That should probably use CWBackPixel instead of CWBackPixmap.
