Forwarding Debian bug https://bugs.debian.org/742510
\>8------------------------------------------------------8<
to reproduce install a jessie/sid qemu VM with Cirrus video card.
On VM:
```
# apt-get install xdm
# echo /usr/bin/xdm >/etc/X11/default-display-manager
# /etc/init.d/xdm restart
```
Username one types in will not be displayed and once pressed enter
greeting and prompt fonts will not be displayed as well.
```
# apt-get install devscripts
# debsnap -v -d. --binary -a amd64 xserver-xorg-video-cirrus 1:1.4.0-2
# dpkg -i --force-depends xserver-xorg-video-cirrus_1.4.0-2_amd64.deb
# /etc/init.d/xdm restart
```
Downgrading to 1.4.0-2, fonts are displayed well.
Another workaround is switching to standard VGA card.

Plus, by mousing over where characters should be, they appear.

screenshot with cairo 1.12.4 and later
When using the cirrus graphics driver while running Ubuntu in a kvm virtual machine, cairo 1.12.4 and later (including 1.12.8) corrupts pixmaps. Downgrading to 1.12.2 seems to solve this issue. See attached screenshots.

## Description
Complete Xorg.log is attached. Last lines from the log are copied below. Also tried 16bpp, does not work either.
I could get this CL-GD5464 video card to run only with the vesa driver (but obviously slower and not at the top resolution).
The same X Server runs fine on the same PC when using any of the two other PCI video cards I tried, using their mga and nv drivers correspondingly.
This PC has a Cyrix 6x86L CPU which is not 686, but is closer to being a 486-class CPU (could this be the issue?). The OS installed is the current Debian Testing.
