fixed it. Running trunk 20947 right now. I *perhaps* *think* I didn't see
this with either some older version of the NVIDIA driver or some older
version of trunk, not sure which since both changed.  But I was also in
"prototype" mode at that point -- now I am trying to temporarily use this
machine as a "production" node. Especially since my Zotac ION is being RMA'd
for a bad memory bus controller...

I've tried without any interlacer at all, and still see the issue, as well.
Also, to reduce any of the other possibilities, I'm running with a very
light  window manager (ratpoison) instead of kde/kdm which I was running.

Not sure where to go at this point - myth bug, nvidia driver bug, or what...
 I'm back to XvMC and SD content right now.
