user32: Send WM_NCPAINT and WM_ERASEBKGND when window is shown.
Have you moved the about window or overlaid it with something? It works that way. It won't work once you invoke it without doing anything else. Also your composite window manager might have interfered - I don't use one.
The issue at hand was that a newly shown windows didn't get a redraw message, this the image was missing. That also explains why it works when you move the window or overlay something. I don't really know why it doesn't work on your system. Maybe the tests I added in this commit can help gather insights?
