I have had reports of other people having problems with transparent 
tiles and tirex. I never had the time to investigate but before you 
debug any further you should try generating an image with your style 
using generate_image.py; if that works, and using Tirex doesn't, then we 
really need to get to the bottom of this! If OTOH using 
generate_image.py does the same as Tirex then your problem is somewhere 
else.
