Yes it does. If you have 1/2 an hour, try printing a GdkPixbuf picture with
an alpha channel in it from inside of Abi...

I'm going to check into trying to make this faster inside of gnome-print. If
not, some alternative must be found because this current setup is too slow
to ship our next release with.
