Can happily reproduce with Fedora packaged thunderbird-3.0-2.4.b3pre.hg.6a6386c16e98.fc11.x86_64, but cannot with upstream binary ("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090703 Shredder/3.1a1pre").
Please test the equivalent version, Matej. 3.1alpha data is good to have, but more important is to know whether this bug exists in the upstream 3.0beta code. If so, this should be filed specifically targetting the 3.0 beta.
Also, we've had a new package come out since. Is this still reproducible?
OK, still the same ... I can reproduce this issue with thunderbird-3.0-3.8.b3.fc12.x86_64, and cannot with the upstream binary for TB 3.0b3 ("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); cs; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090715 Thunderbird/3.0b3").

This seems to be problem with --enable-system-cairo (our cairo). When I build Thunderbird without this option I'm unable to reproduce thus bug anymore.
