 At least the second part of my problem (not the perforated letters) looks
 very similar.  I would not be surprised if the perforated letters had
 the same cause.
 
 Thank you for finding this bug report.  It was not yet there last time I
 checked...

FWIW, I'm getting the perforated letters too, in IW but also in other
applications (XFCE terminal).  I have an Intel 945GM, too.  I have not
noticed the problem from the bugreport, though.
