This looks like a problem with a newer version of dvipng and/or freetype. Using
(on Fedora 9):

TeX, Version 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.6) [TeXLive 2007]
dvipng 1.9
freetype-2.3.8-0.1.20080729cvs.fc9.i386

and a test document containing just "$e^{8z}$", I get a fairly well rendered z.
I'll upload a picture.
I haven't tried it through the MediaWiki, but I doubt it would matter. 

You can run dvipng in max debug mode (-d -1), and you get an ascii art version
for each letter, as rendered by freetype.
This is how mine looks like (pretty visible :

  OPEN FT FONT: '/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmmi7.pfb'
@182 DRAW CMD:  SETC_122
  FT CHAR:      'z' 122 at (40,9) tfmw 250390
  LOAD FT CHAR  122 (250390) (6x4)
DRAW GLYPH 122
  0  68 170 119 153   0 |
  0   0  34 153  17   0 |
  0  68 136   0  34   0 |
 34 153 119 170  68   0 |

CBM, what version of freetype are you using? Do you get the bug without
involving MediaWiki?
