That would not be easy I think... I myself have seen this only *once*,
in midori and, strange enough, only some of the opened webpages were
affected and reload did not fix/break them (and even stranger in some of
them it was letter 'e' and in others letter 'a' that was screwed, if I
recall correctly). Now (after a few restarts and totally forgetting
about it), everything looks just how it should... I thought at that time
it was some weird font issue. I am also on Intel and on Gnome, using
metacity with compositing enabled (it's more reliable for me than compiz
and I just want real transparency support anyway). Definitely not always
reproducible for me...
