Bug Description
Using Stellarium 10.6 in Mac OS X 10.6, when the projection is set to Hammer-Aitoff, the Spheric Mirror distortion is turned on, and the up arrow is pressed so the azimuth is dead ahead, there is a flickering dark-yellow arc that appears. If I press the down arrow, the arc gets smaller then finally disappears. If I press the up arrow to get the azimuth into the center, the flickering arc reappears.
This only happens in Hammer-Aitoff projection. All other projections are fine. This artifact also occurs when Spheric Mirror distortion is turned off but appears as a flickering horizontal line. I was able to replicate this on an iMac and a MacBook.
Log.txt is as follows:

You look like a Mac user. How would you like to write some system info code here? That would help a lot.
