I was just casually playing this game (again) when it happened.
I chose the track "Scotland" (but it also happened to other tracks).
In this version, 0.7.3, we have other characters and one of the newer ("Monkey") is not rendered properly.
I play this game on a machine with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, in version 0.7.0 and this bahavior does not happen.
So, I guess, the Ubuntu 12.10 repository has a buggy version of this game.
