Hello,
I can confirm strange behaviour when jumping in/out of fullscreen mode, at
least in Falcon hicolour mode.
1. Screenshot when first starting up Hagtari in Hicolour:

Everything is fine then.
2. Then when entering fullscreen, Hatari looks like this:

The blue part is the useable workspace, the rest is inactive. But as you
can see the pixels get the wrong colour in fullscreen.
3. And last when returning to window mode, the window has changed size
and have graphics garbage in the unused parts.

All screenshots are taken with Hataris internal screenshot function with
version 1.3.1 under OS X 10.6. It had the same behaviour under 10.5 before
as well.
I'd also like to point out that Hatari changes resolution when going to
fullscreen. This is very irritating in my opinion, some points why;
a) it takes the LCD screen some time to resync for the new resolution
b) it sets the resolution so low that it won't fit the ST/Falcon resolutions properly
c) some apps which are running beside Hatari can get quite fucked up by this resolution change, Photoshop in particular, it's annoying to have to restart Photoshop becuase you ran Hatari fullscreen
d) the LCD performs interpolated scaling so pixels won't be as sharp as they would with decent doubling/tripling etc of pixels to the native resolution
