Screenshot fails when using metacity

[GoogleCodeExporter]

My desktop uses Compiz/Beryl as window manager and screenshots from active
windows works great.

But when I swap back to Metacity, it fails.

Step
1. Open a desktop with metacity
2. Open amora server
3. Connect with client
4. Ask for a screenshot.

The screenshot will have the color of window decoration (brown for 'Human
theme' and blue for Nuvola theme).

Is almost like the window manager reported the current window attribute
with wrong size.

The bug probably is within screen_capture function (imscreen.c) in line
"tmp = XGetWindowAttributes(display, window, &window_attr);"

Tested KDE, only KDE's based applications works fine. GTK's based one fails.

I just sent a message for GTK devel mailing list, hoping for the best.

Commit number r200 (eh, a quite symbolic number, hum?) fixed the issue.

Tested successfully in Ubuntu 7.04.
