I have the 6.0 driver (got it from a friend with one of the CD-ROMs
that came out of Apple), and I still encounter this text reversal
occasionally.  It seems to be dependant on scaling of the text --
certain scale factors cause the problem, change the factor a little
and it goes away, but it sure is annoying.  Hope somebody has a fix
for it...
