The bug lives on. Here are shots from 3.3.4.

Devs, do you want me to let the kernel panic run its course and let it crash the computer, then restart and send a bug report, or would you rather have me quit when the textures go weird and send a report?

I'll say try to not let your computer crash and try to exit as soon as you can.
We're aware of the problem and have no way to fix it as of this time.
