Screenshot of xmgrace with active modesetting

Description of problem:
For a fully updated "rawhide" system, button labels are incomplete after launching xmgrace.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.1-10.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot X with kernel modesetting.
2. Launch 'xmgrace'.
  
Actual results:
Certain buttons are empty or show character fragments only.

Expected results:
Buttons are rendered correctly.

Additional info:
No artifacts appear after booting system with kernel option "nomodeset" for both acceleration methods "exa" and "xaa". Thus, the issue is a pure modesetting problem.

I have just checked whether the issue was still present, and as of xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-4.fc11.x86_64, it is resolved.
