Bug#699161: iceweasel: Fonts pixelated after pressing back until redraw is forced

Package: iceweasel
Version: 18.0.1-1~bpo60+1
Severity: normal


On certain websites, for example: news.ycombinator.com whenever I press the back button, then the fonts are afterward pixelated. Or maybe not anti-aliased or smoothed. 
The moment iceweasel does redraw the font smoothing is used again (for example by clicking the website itself once).

To reproduce: Visit news.ycombinator.com then for example click on any "comments" link. Then press the back button (you have to enable navigation toolbar if you don't have it enabled). The main page should now be looking pixelated.
