An update. I finally got around to tackling this. I believe the issue was a float precision problem. I solved it by placing an osg::MatrixTransform above each drawable. That way all my matrix ops are computed using doubles and not floats. This addressed the problem nicely. The text is now stable from an altitude of hundreds of thousands of meters down to an altitude of dozens of meters, etc.
Thanks to all those that responded.
