Correct me if I'm wrong though, but I read that it wasn't a problem
anymore in 10.5... can anyone confirm that??

The drawing order of sibling views in AppKit was never guaranteed to
be well-defined. In plain English that means the only drawing order
you can rely on is that subviews will be drawn after their
superview. I think you can turn on Layer-backed views to make this
behaviour more predictable, but that's a bit fiddly, too.
So, no, it's not an IB bug, it's simply a documented inability of
AppKit. Don't ask me why it isn't supported. Even Carbon does that,
and it's very easy to do this with good performance. Heck, I
implemented speedy and correct overlapping with transparency back in
the System 8 days for MacZoop, and I was just starting out as a
programmer...
