Bug Description
Application: kicad
Version: (2015-11-17 BZR 6318, Git 7f9a073)-product release build
wxWidgets: Version 3.0.2 (debug,
Platform: Windows 7 (build 7601, Service Pack 1), 64-bit edition, 64 bit, Little endian, wxMSW
Boost version: 1.57.0
Noticed it while making a few new footprints: switching the visibility of the Ref** text back and forth generates a second copy of the text with opposite visibility setting.
Here is an animated gif showing the artifacts:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Fire up the FP Editor and load a footprint
2. Click on the Ref** text and switch it to invisible
3. Switch the visibility again to visible
4. Move the text somewhere else
5. As soon as you deselect the text, a 2nd copy of it shows up at the previous location
After some more testing the Val** also started to clone itself. The "ghost" copy disappears as soon as you click on the text. Shows up immediately after deselecting the text.

Switching to Default mode and back removes the copies, but they will show up as soon as you start to change the visibility settings.

The problem is actually GAL related, shows up in pcbnew too:

The same way to reproduce: cycle the visibility of the text and move it, then deselect the component.
