Could it be that those systems and you all are using XFree 4's new RENDER 
extension? I.e. you're using antialiasing with KDE? I ask because this was 
the time I saw the problem for the first time. And with 'export QT_XFT=no' 
the strange highlighting vanishes (at least for me). BTW, I have an ATI 
Mach64 chip.

Ciao,
