Hello, i've noticed some stars have been labelled twice when zoomed in. Not all stars show this problem, for example ive seen this happening in Orion and in other constallations. Probably there are more cases since i haven't checked every star in the sky.
I've been able to reproduce this in versions 0.10.2 and 0.10.3 on two different computers (desktop and netbook).
desktop's graphic card is a nvidia 285GTX, netbook's is an Intel integrated card.
My log file for 0.10.3 is:

To show the problem i'm attaching a screenshot. When zoomed in you can notice the problem is that the same star is shown twice, so maybe it's been duplicated in the star catalogs?
Sorry, just noticed these are binary stars, so in fact they aren't duplicated. Maybe the label should only appear for the brighter star to avoid having this visual issue.
As a side note, in version 0.10.3 many fonts, including labels appear to be blurry and not sharp, some of them even sparkle like stars, you can notice it from the screenshot. Should i open a new report for this?
