Thanks Brice. Indeed it turns out people are having this problem even with
older Xorgs - it's a bug in the latest nvidia drivers.

Doing some research I found this:

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=7858bb6d26391d3abf310c8788143778&t=99016

which suggests that I can work around the problem by explicitly disabling
"composite."

I'll try this when I get into the office tomorrow and report back if that works.
