Examples work in v=3.3 but not v=3.4.

On the other hand, I've got several production maps that continue to work well 
with MarkerWithLabel in v=3.4

We are experiencing the same problem with the MarkerWithLabel class on our 
website Mobilitate.co.za. Please see the following urls for examples (note that 
we are using the MarkerClusterer class to do client side clustering below a 
zoom level of 5km so you will need to zoom out beyond this level to see the 
problem with the MarkerWithLabel class):

Has anyone managed to find a quick fix for this problem that we can use while 
we wait for an official solution?

Ok, we found that setting the Google Maps version back to 3.3 works as a quick 
fix to resolve this problem. Have a look at the following page for details on 
how to set the map version:

WORKAROUND

Until Google fixes this bug, an easy workaround is to explicitly set the 
visible property when you create a new MarkerWithLabel. In most cases you will 
want to set it to true so that the marker appears as soon as you create it.

Thanks for sharing this workaround.
