Comment(by neteler):

 Replying to [comment:9 glynn]:
 > r63582 makes the cairo driver behave almost identically to the PNG
 driver.
 >
 > For reasons which I've been unable to determine so far, the result is
 one destination pixel wider than with the PNG driver.

 Not sure if related but here I remember ticket #72.


 > Ultimately, the code should be modified to use an intermediate surface
 which has the same dimensions as the destination rectangle, to avoid the
 overhead of copying the (empty) borders.

 Should the ticket be reopened for this?
