But attacking this problem from another angle: I'm assuming it's not a

the upgrade within an xterm window, I'd probably not have this alignment

There's no problem upgrading within X. I've done it for
years. It's just that if you upgrade various X-related
packages, you'll want to restart X. But if you upgrade the
kernel, you'll probably want to reboot your whole system.
