When using an italic font (tested with lucida grande fontset,
variable-width), glyphs overwrite parts of previous glyphs. It looks
like single glyphs are shown on the screen with a white background
color, on top of the previous text. Upon redisplay, everything looks
good, which means that this only occurs after typing text as opposed
to pasting, or making it italic after typing.
The attached screenshot shows the effect: look for the letter 'h'.
I could not reproduce the problem with an X11 Emacs on GNU/Linux.
It does occur with a Carbon Emacs, though.
In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.4 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.2.0)
