X server problems with xscreensaver

I am running Xubuntu 12.04 with xscreensaver version 5.15 (as it comes
from Synaptic), and I noticed that while the screensaver is running
and the screen is locked, when I type something or move the mouse to
unlock the screen, the input window remains behind the image - or so
it appears: the mouse only shows up within the bounds of where the
window would be, but it is not visible on the screen.
The screensaver I am using is GLSlideShow.
This only happens on my home desktop. This did not happen on this
machine when I was running Ubuntu 10.10 about a month ago.

xorg.conf (used to be the short one that comes with the release, but
this also doesn't help):

fglrx version is 2:8.960-0ubuntu1.
Should I file this as a bug? I've also found a way to crash the X
server in this config, although it is tricky.
