upgrade to pcmanfm 0.9.7 makes mrxvt pseudo-transparancy not work.

Pcmanfm got updated when I did a "pacman -Suy".  I run mrxvt and transparancy
no longer works.  Before I was able to adjust the transparancy using hotkeys.  When
I enable transparancy, my terminals windows no longer refresh properly.  The
background doesn't get refreshed as it did with pcman 0.5.2-1.  So I killed the pcmanfm
process and started xfdesktop (xfce4 desktop manager), and the terminals worked
correctly.  Now I'm not sure if there is a new protocol or format for the Atoms on the
root window, but something is definitely wrong.  I was going to submit a bug request
but I'm not sure if it is something with mrxvt or pcmanfm.

A simple test to validate my claim is to run pcmanfm --desktop, then run mrxvt,
set a desktop backround image.  Inside the mrxvt setting press ctrl+shift+r.  Then
you can adjust the transparancy (when it works), with ctrl+shift+j
and ctrl+shift+k.  You can also display text on the terminal window, then hit ctrl+l
to clear the screen and the text no longer erases.  You can toggle the transparancy mode
with ctrl+shift+r and then hit ctrl+l to see results.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks...
