One more panning movement, and the map will be drawn again...

Version:           2.4.1 (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

I have this problem since a few months, thus I cannot pinpoint the first time
it occured. However, it occurs in different openSUSE incarnations (11.4, 12.1,
Factory, Tumbleweed) and since Digikam 2.3, I think. 
The geolocation widget is unusable because of rendering problems in the map
display. I also attach a picture to illustrate the problem, it's the same if
using Google Maps, Marble or a satellite view.
Graphics drivers are current versions of AMD Catalyst, if that's of relevance.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
When doing anything that would move around the display (panning, selecting
different photos in the listview, etc.) chances are nearly 100% that this won't
work, but the areas which should be drawn anew are simply blank. 
It's reproducable: If I select a picture that requires a completely different
map section to be drawn, this will work most of the time. But: If only a
partial redraw of the map is necessary, this won't work and the section which
should be drawn anew are blank. 
If I use the arrows to pan around in the map, the map will be OK once again as
soon as I have completely moved out of the previously displayed map section. So
in the attached screenshot, which is almost completely blank, I will have to
move one more step to be completely out of the area which has been rendered in
the first place, and the map will be OK again.

Panning around by simply clicking into the map an dragging does not work at
all.

And, maybe related: Sometimes geolocating pictures by dropping them into the
picture does not work at all. They "fall down" out of the picture and are
located somewhere south of the area the map displays. Yes, the pins are really
and animatedly "falling down", which is very strange.
