Video of problem

Characters are drawn incorrectly with some small probability on every repaint. This causes a few characters on screen to be corrupt most of the time, and makes a rather odd flickering effect when resizing windows.  See attached video for example. Symptoms appear not to be present with bitmap or monospace fonts.

A git bisect suggests the problem appeared here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/commit/?id=2a59eadf8165bd70780ac16220456c6196ac3ff1

It would seem the glyph mask hack is still needed.

I was able to reproduce the problem with xf86-video-intel 2.21.12 on Xorg 1.12 (Debian Sid) and on Xorg 1.14.99.1-167-gff38bbe, built using the instructions in the ModularDevelopersGuide.
