Interesting.  I've also seen some visual peculiarities with fxtv lately on
my 5.1-CURRENT box under similar circumstances: if I move windows around,
sometimes video garbage is left behind -- especially alternating
scanlines.  I haven't tried backing out to earlier versions, though, so
I'll give that a try and see if the problem goes away.
