I had lots of graphics related problems with gnome3.2 - from render
errors to system freezes. So in a desperate move I unmasked gnome3.4
(from the overlay) and installed it. Installing (and maintaining) 3.4 is
a bit hairy, but all my problems have gone since that.

So if recompiling with O2 does not help, and you don't mind bleeding
edge packages on your system, try 3.4
