Bug Description
Running on Arch Linux, after the upgrade xorg-server (1.16.4-1 -> 1.17.1-1) I noticed graphical issues when the dock enters the hidden state:

$ lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Chelsea XT GL [FirePro M4000]
The ATI drivers have been updated as well: xf86-video-ati (1:7.5.0-1 -> 1:7.5.0-2)
