I saw it a long time ago. I clearly understand its purpose and
its purpose does not meet my intents.

I didn't.  I am not submitting a patch  to the Plan 9 developers.
Plan 9 developers should figure a way to adjust the pixmap size so
that it works with all drivers properly, and check for Xlib status.

What I have sent is a fully working, but temporary solution, aimed
at temporary disabling buggy code. It should not be included into
the source tree, and should not become the only solution to the
problem. 

When/if I'll find time and desire to re-write pixmap-related code
so that it is actually working, I'll submit the patch using appropriate
tools.

Sincerely,
David Tolpin
