i know the problem and it was also mentioned/discussed
in an exchange on the gem-dev list in august or september,
search under motion blur. fact is that the trails
and motionblur only work "exact" when the gemwin is rectangular
and the snap and the square where the texture is glued onto has
the same size then the gemwin. 
why - i dont know - and was also back then not answerd.
