With the recent mentions of Abiword, I've reinstalled it. Yet it

pixels under the current row of text, the old cursor isn't erased

this?
Sample here: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/abiword/abiword.jpg
I just reinstalled it too. ;-)
I don't see any stray pixels like you're seeing. One thing I notice is
that your cursor is a lot thicker than the one I'm seeing. If Abiword
is expecting you to have a thinner cursor, that might be why it doesn't
erase the extra pixels when you move it.
I also see several differences in the appearance of your toolbar buttons
and other UI elements. What window manager are you using, and what
theme?
I just remembered that I had implemented a tip I got somewhere for
forcing use of the condensed versions of the DejaVu fonts. Try saving
the attached file in home directory as .fonts.config and see if it
makes any difference when you restart X and abiword.
On second thought, this is probably a red herring. If the stray pixels
don't go away when you use a different font or change the point size,
this tweak of the DejaVu font has nothing to do with it.
Sorry for the misdirection! I was focused on identifying what might be
different between your system and mine, and a little too narrowly on the
font used in your example.
Have you asked about this problem on the freebsd-gnome mailing list?
