There is no GWorld involved.

According to the Carbon Dev mailing list:

- This is a bug in Aqua caused by the background pattern not taking the 
origin into account;
- Apple refuses to fix the problem;
- A number of frameworks besides PowerPlant have the same problem;
- The only real workaround is to intercept the EraseRect and EraseRgn 
bottlenecks and fix the origin before calling StdXXX;
