As you can see in the linked png with xorg-6.8.2-r2 transparency is broken. I'm using nvidia latest driver and as you can see here I'm not the only one having this problem: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-357455-highlight-openoffice+transparent.html Maybe a good idea is to check which of the new -r2 patches broke what in -r1 was working fine.
