What happened to cause the icon next to list items in the dock pop-up menus to appear like this rather than the standard window icon?

A bug. I don't know what causes it. Maybe nobody knows yet.

Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

You have the same problem? My wife's Powerbook also running 10.3.2 does not do this. My G5 does.
Also, it appears to be some sort of font issue as I also have trouble in, say, Excel when opening a password protected file. Instead of showing me nice bullet points per character as I type my password I receive some random other character. Anyone know what system font is being used? How to make sure mine hasn't been corrupted?

I haven't seen that in the Dock before, but I have seen that happen sometimes with Finder icons. It may be due to a corrupted LaunchServices cache - you might want to try deleting any files in /Library/Caches/ and ~/Library/Caches/ whose names start with /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.

I would also delete files starting with com.apple.dock.iconcache

Honestly, I just rebooted (ack, that was the first time in months other than OS updates) and it cleared up the dock problem. The Excel problem (not showing bullets when typing a password) still exists.
