The Dock magnification uses a bitmap interpolation routine that's not

I asked Peter Graffigino (sorry if I misspelled that name) about it,
and apparently the image scaling code the dock uses was replaced at
the last minute before shipping 10.0, when it was discovered that the
previous technique made the diagonal cross-hatching on the wastebasket
icon look pretty bad.
Jeez, why didn't they just trash the stupid cross-hatched wastebasket
and put a _Real_ trashcan on the desktop where it belongs?! I wish I
knew enough to do it myself; every time I try to trash something with
the dock hidden my dragged item(s) go twitching around like St. Vitus'
dance. A regular moving target.
Maybe, but you never need to shuffle your windows around to get to it,
do you?
If you don't want it to be a moving target, then turn off dock hiding
and scaling.
