So far, its still just you.

I just tried FvwmBacker and I don't notice anything.
I assume FvwmBacker is still configured to use solid colors?

In XConfig, under screens, on the screen 0 tab, when I click
Advanced, I have "Root Mouse Actions to X"
"Track Mouse" is not selected,
and Root Drawing is "background only".

Under Performance:

No Exact zero width lines
Yes Accelerated Drawing Mode
Yes Draft Mode
No Maximize X11Perf Results
Yes Batch Requests
Yes Save Unders
Max Backing store: when mapped
Default Backing store: when mapped
Max Backing store: None
