I'm rather doubtful the graphics driver would effect this as no visual
glitches of any sort are present. In that unlikely event, nVIDIA hardware
and using the closed-source driver.

OTOH, I may have discounted the involvement of the window manager
(metacity) too early. The WM could be doing something odd/unusual that
tweaks GTK in the wrong way.
