cairo produces a black background (overriding the gnome wallpaper) in
the Activities overview in gnome-shell  using the proprietary AMD
Catalyst fglrx driver.

System information:
Arch Linux, kernel 3.6.4-1
X.Org X Server 1.13.0 
cairo 1.12.6-2
gnome-shell 3.6.1
GPU AMD Radeon HD 6450 running catalyst-utils 12.9-0.1


Workarounds:
- Rolling back to cairo 1.12.2-3 fixes the problem using the AMD Catalyst 
driver.
- Bug can not be reproduced using cairo 1.12.6-2 with the open-source ati 
driver (1:6.14.6-2).

I experience exactly the same behavior, but with open-source Intel drivers.
I haven't tried to downgrade cairo, though.

I have to add that this occurs only when I tell the file manager to
"handle the desktop" using gnome-tweak-tool.

cairo 1.12.8
gnome-shell 3.6.2

The problem is still there on my system with cairo 1.12.14-0ubuntu1 on
Ubuntu 13.04, and the fix mentioned by Chris is already included.

In which case, your attention should turn towards Catalyst.

Thanks for the confirmation. So it should be a different problem for
Catalyst.
