Bug Description
Shortly after moonrise, Stellarium displays an atmospheric halo/glow around the Moon. That's fine, but it also displays a duplicate halo/glow mirrored below the horizon. Turn off "Ground" to see it. See attached PNG showing azimuthal grid and bogus Moon glow near Spica.
I'm running Stellarium 0.13.1 on Win7 64-bit with GTX 460 graphics card.

This is programmed like this, and has been for quite a while if not since origin for efficiency. (I see it already in V0.11.4, V0.12.4, not sure about earlier versions.) What's the sudden problem with a symmetrically programmed sky model which shows something below the ground which is covered by the landscape for all practical purposes? You can also say "atmosphere display is wrong for sky below ground". You cannot switch off earth surface in real life, so you cannot compare it, and everything celestial rendered below horizon is wrong in some sense.
