I've compiled a generic version of Mesa (using the basic make target 
linux-x86-64), and built Paraview 3.6.1 with the generic Mesa (as shown 
at 
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/Setting_up_a_ParaView_Server#OSMesa_support) 
on the Fedora 12 machine with the label problem.  The attached 
screenshot shows that there is no longer any problem with the labels.

So, thanks for the tip -- using software rendering works.  Any hope to 
get hardware rendering to work with the intel video driver?
