Ubuntu has an experimental 64bit raring kernel (3.8) with the fix for the coherency bug. Works great for me for fixing the artifacts in the large bitmaps.

Can be tested at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1200126/

It delivers the fix to 65665.

This is very good news also for this bug since the fixed kernels makes it possible to wide test (at least on ubuntu) for the this bug decoupling away effects from the other 65665.

Specifically, it is now possible to ignore some of my attachments for this bug as they showed artifacts caused by the other bug (this is certainly the case for the 'sample libreoffice document that almost always shows issues).
