Created attachment 464852 [details] screenshot of putty 0.68 Works for me. You will need to provide more information.
Created attachment 464874 [details] Window when putty started
Created attachment 464876 [details] Window when I expanded the window with the mouse
It would seem that the window only refreshes when it is resized. I have uploaded 2 screenshots, the first when initially opening the connection and the second when I made the window larger by dragging the bottom left hand corner
Still an issue with current putty in portage?
Unable to reproduce with putty 0.77, please re-open if you are still having trouble :-)
