Description: when using scrot to create a "selected area" screenshot, ````scrot -s````, what should be a perfect rectangle is morphed into an indented (negative?) version of the drawn region on screen. This leaves artifacts in what ends up being a correctly captured screenshot.


Additional info:
* scrot version 0.8
* example: http://i.imgur.com/BDdLp.png


Steps to reproduce:
1) install scrot
2) execute ````scrot -s````
3) click and drag a region on the screen
4) reverse the direction of the mouse while still holding the mouse button
5) observe border artifacts in the drawn selection
