I had another independent report of this bug.  The Java update sounds
like it could be the culprit.  The other reporter successfully worked
around the problem by using the -Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=false
command line option when invoking Java.  That uses a different rendering
pipeline.

Unfortunately I don’t have much time for bug triaging at the moment, but
if that workaround worked and it is indeed an Apple JRE problem, and you
wanted to follow up on it I suggest posting to the
http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/java-dev mailing list or filing
a bug with Apple.
