That's nearly 100% reproducable for me, been since RHL 9/FC1'is and
still present in FC3. Just open up a new gnome-terminal and hit shift-
crtl-n two times, on the last tab every cell without text in it is
black. IIRC the patches in this package 
http://fedora.laiskiainen.org/SRPMS.patches/vte-0.11.11-0.fc2.1.src.rpm
made that problem disappear, along with speeding it up enormously but
it's been a while and I might be wrong :-/
