  "tiled-backing-store" is a misused flag in this case
and, IMHO, "accelerated compositing" switch should be used in this case.
This flag was used because of "historical" reasons and it might be a good
time to fix it also .

  Also, --no-tiled-backing-store works as a workaround because it is
switches off texture mapper based accelerated compositing drawing which
uses opengl by default and because of this needs GLX . But texture mapper
has fallback mode when it uses ImageBuffer as a "texture" . To enable this
creating of EvasGLContext should be disabled. I remember Yael was fixing
it. IMHO, it would be better workaround for the Xvfb GLX regression.
