Public bug reported: Sometimes Firefox renders text incorrectly. For example, occasionally one of the titles in Google search results is rendered differently than the rest. Text rendering returns to normal after scrolling a page, selecting and deselecting a text, or minimizing and restoring the window.
Example of the bug: http://i44.tinypic.com/qo7ewk.png The problem happens with both stable Firefox version and Aurora builds.
