I have this bug on Gentoo, running xterm under compiz, Radeon card with
gallium drivers. Before hardware upgrade the system had nVidia card with
nVidia's proprietary drivers, software otherwise the same, and it did
not have this bug.

When I have time I plan to try upgrading to Gentoo's unstable versions
of mesa etc. to see if they will fix the bug, but for now I use the
workaround of (re)starting compiz with the "--indirect-rendering"
option, which seems to get rid of the symptoms. Other people here might
want to test if it works for them also.
