Thanks Uwe,
The patched 2.13.2 solves this issue.

I think you found a bug introduced in R-2.13.x that has been fixed in 
R-2.13.2 which has been released yesterday.

Best,
Uwe Ligges

Employing useRaster=TRUE here only applies to the heatmap and not the legend.  Not a huge deal.  Is there anyway to set an option in R to always use rastering when drawing in the interface?

It is a gridding pattern in white, that appears over the plot area only.  Vertical lines are every 4 units, evenly spaced.  Horizontal lines appear at every unit, then stop for a while (6-7 units, then appear every unit for 4-5 units).  Simple plots like plot(x,y) do not seem to produce it, or at least I can't see it.  Any ideas are helpful.
