Indeed this is strange. I have reproduced your issue. The problem is
that since Genode 14.08 we have a completely new GUI architecture.
Thereby, the framebuffer multiplexer "nitpicker" was minimized even
more, excluding the mouse pointer and statusbar from it. Moreover,
nitpicker now correlates its clients to configured domains.

In your example no domain is defined in nitpickers configuration at all.
To me the observed outcome, which is both nit_fb frames are located at
offset 0,0 of the screen, looks like unintended behavior. Either
nitpicker should decline to visualize clients it cannot relate to a
domain (and warn about it), or it should use a default domain even if
this is not stated explicitly. Maybe Norman (author of the whole graphic
stack) can add whether this is expected behavior?

Anyway, if you declare a default domain in nitpickers configuration,
everything works fine. Just add the following snippet to the nitpicker
start entry:

  <config>
    <domain name="" layer="1"/>
    <policy label="" domain=""/>
  </config>

Nevertheless, even when adding above snippet to your configuration, you
will miss a mouse-pointer and statusbar. If you want to have any of
those, you might have a look at the "repos/os/run/demo.run" script, and
copy out the configuration of "nitpicker", "report_rom", "status_bar",
and "pointer" from there. This way you will gain a setup that is almost
identically to the old nitpicker used within the ancient
two_linux_panda.run script.
