No, pan is the only problem where I see this, among a choice of gtk2
and qt using packages. I'm currently running 6.99.22 before my commits
to X, and using a Radeon card.

It stopped working after an update from pkgsrc where nothing had
changed in the pan package itself. I don't know which packages were
updated during that update. I hadn't changed the -current below it.
Moving away .pan2 didn't help either.
