First thing I would try is to revert that patch and set m_loadManually to NP_FULL in the constructor and see what that does.
Second thing I would try is to revert the patch and set m_loadManually to NP_EMBED in the constructor and see what that does.
I'm running into an unrelated assertion on this page in debug WebKit. So I'll try commenting out the assert to try your suggestions.
My regression testing was off by one. This was actually caused by r53110
Yeah, that's me.

Filed bug 34009 on avoiding compositing mode just for a 0x0 plugin.
The issue here is that there's a fixed position div inside an abs. position div, and the fixed position div is using the wrong offsets. In general, there's a conflict between the geometry and layering hierarchies for fixed position elements. In terms of geometry, a fixed layer would naturally be anchored at the root, but in terms of layering it should be anchored in its container. Layering comes first, but we'll have to throw animations of things with fixed descendants into software.
