Confirmed with day-old svn checkout. It appears to occur during the taskbar animation from one state(normal, focused, minimized, etc.) to another (hover, focused, etc.). It becomes more evident the more task items there are. Problem occurs with all with all plasma themes though it may not be as immediately obvious with very dark themes (black bar + black bar = me no see). I almost think its a remnant of the recent task-item-flashing-during-fade-animation bug that lasted for a short time last week.
Confirmed. I see a small 1-2px vertical black line too.

Are you using the nvidia drivers?
*** Bug has been marked as fixed ***.
Thomas, me -- no (intel 950).
Still seeing this here: SVN version 828482. More info: Using Aya theme. No black bar when hovering over task item for minimized apps (no minimized element in Aya's tasks theme). All other apps states (normal, attention) cause flickering black bar. Only happens after > 2 apps added to panel. After fade in animation, resulting task item state (e.g. hovered, normal) is shorter than necessary - window title text slight overruns task item background. This is more obvious when the task has a long title (konqueror pointing to this website can be a good test case. The flashing black bar seems to fill in the rest of the space that the task item background should cover. Hope this helps.
whoa, now I'm seeing this too, on my desktop system. it's happening only on the bottom 3 of 6 tasks (vertical panel). theme is Glassified, driver's nvidia. it's clearly the fade in&out animations that have the black bar. minimizing doesn't make a difference, but while I have the mouse down, the clicked task gets a *gray* bar. my laptop is still running svn from about a week and a half ago and isn't having any trouble.
I'm having the same problem on trunk from yesterday :-( proprietary nvidia drivers and default theme
I'm having the same problem on svn from yesterday 13/july. I'm using proprietary nvidia drivers and Arezzo theme.
I made some tests, I'm having this black bars using the nvidia proprietary drivers, but NO USING VESA Drivers. So I guess we're screwed by nvidia once again :(
I'm also having this problem using the Glassified theme and an intel internal GMA X3100 graphic adapter.
