Typical appearance of garbage

After running memory intensive programs I often have garbled UIs, most often in GTK+ programs. I started to suspect memory read back from disk for this problem and run a little test driving out a lot of memory to disk and artifacts showed. Someone else on gentoo.org said he had exactly the same sort of artifacts after hibernating to disk.

System environment:
-- chipset: "Intel 965GM"
-- system architecture: i686 32-bit
-- xf86-video-intel: "2.17.0"

-- libdrm: 2.4.27
