"...how long to wait for the bug to arise?"

I did not measure it, but about a minute seems to consistently reproduce
the behavior for me using Pacman which, as you stated, is not a default
screensaver.

Regarding the hardware, could it be related to using a USB mouse vs. a
PS/2 mouse?  I am using a USB mouse but I would think that would be
abstracted to the screensaver.

Unfortunately I do not have a test machine available at the moment, so I
cannot help test in Karmic.  Thanks for looking into this for being a
papercut, mac_v.  If you cannot easily reproduce it, it would seem it is
not a papercut.
