Cool, seems like a good thing to fix! (Personally I don't use borders, though)
While this is fine if you can guarantee (nbc < 0x01000000 && fbc <
0x01000000), it may be worthwhile to use (.|.) from Data.Bits instead
of (+) to ensure that the colors don't overflow.

Hi,
I just browsed through the mailing list and noticed that some people were having problems with borders disappearing when viewing RGBA windows. This happened to me with Nautilus, Evince, Chrome and others.
I've written a tiny fix for this more than 6 months ago, but never contributed it. (Didn't manage to install darcs. Just tried again for an hour and failed again)
Thought I should post this in case someone is still suffering from it. The patch flips the transparency bits in addition to the color bits specified by the user. (They are 0x00 otherwise and result in full transparency)
