This is almost certainly a problem with the latest vte release and I
suspect it is happening with Linux, as well.

has anyone looked at bugzilla for VTE to see if a bug report has already
been made?

I don't think it is xorg or driver related and it only seems to happen in
vte based terminal windows and it happens on every system I have, ATi,
nVidia, or even Matrox.

There are two recently opened bugs (441918 and 442688) which I describe
pretty much what I have been seeing, but 441918 claims to be from
0.16.3.

I see Joe just checked in fixes about an hour ago, so this is probably
taken care of already.
