This sounds like an OpenGL bug.

The result should be the same, copy should give the antialiased image.

Try several different visuals to see if it affects the behaviour. I saw
a similar thing with blending on a multisample visual once. Chanaging
the visual corrected the problem.

Cheers,ANgus.

My comment on the abuse of Jon Johanson's rights;
After giving up raiding their neighboring countries the Norse men
have taken to raiding 16 year old kids in their bedrooms. Very sad.
