Bug Description

Running on a 16:9 wide screen, xscreensaver runs with wrong aspect ratio: GL objects and pictures get deformed when rotating. This breaks a lot of the beauty of the screen savers.

FWIW, the preview screen displays at 3:4, despite the main display being 16:9. This is then stretched when running normally (i.e. in full-screen).
