(Get the code!)
I also tried the patch on xserver 1.13 and it fixed the graphic corruption problems I was having in Firefox. I appear to still have some graphic corruption problems in LibreOffice, though, but I lack the knowledge to check whether it is due to EXA, Cairo, or LibreOffice itself. In general, as the text is redrawn, it whites out until one clicks somewhere on the page and most of the text becomes visible once again. I recompiled the X server without the patch just to make sure that this wasn't a regression introduced by the patch, and I verified that the bug was present before I applied the patch. One way or another, this patch seems to make the situation better. I am also unable to find any notable regressions introduced by it.
For the record I have an Nvidia GTX 560 and am using Nouveau as the driver.
