In aterm 0.4.2, fading and background images cannot be
used together. The attached patch fixes the
incompatibility problem.

To duplicate:
Compile aterm 0.4.2 with support for fading (
--enable-fading ) and background images (
--enable-background-image ). Start aterm, specifying
both options ( aterm -fade 25 -pixmap
my_background.xpm). The background image will be
replaced with a solid color background the first time
aterm loses focus, and the background image will never
return.

This problem was reported in the "bugs" list ( pixmap
background + fade doesn't work ) at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=417814&group_id=888&atid=100888
and a patch was posted. The patch simply commented out
some required code and, although fixing the problem in
this specific situation, introduced several other bugs.

To the best of my knowledge, this patch does not
introduce any new bugs. :)
