Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Sometimes, display fonts become garbled (see attached image). This
affects all applications, including those not yet launched, until X is
restarted.

The problem seems to occur particularly when using Firefox, but I was
not able to identify a sequence of actions leading to it.
