You can see through blocks(especially in the nether, not in the overworld except when using tiny view distance.)This affect disappears when using F1 mode. I use a custom texture pack that changes the grass texture on the side of blocks. The link is: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/110170711/Server%20Texture%20Pack.zip
Show below are images of my view settings and other references.

We need some more info, which video settings did you select ingame? simple/advanced etc?
Can you do this consistently? is it only on this map/location? Could you perhaps upload the map to a public location so we could check if that is the case?
It seems like a transparency flag of sorts is still turned on. No idea what causes that.
I use a custom texture pack that changes the side of grass and it works on any map without potion effects. Fancy and fast graphics don't change it. Only view distance. I use fullscreen on a 64 bit Mac. Also, I was using a multiplayer server.

The problem is with your texture pack; the terrain.png has a maximum opacity of 92%, so it's no real surprise you can see through everything. Not sure why this only happens with tiny view distance, possibly some optimizations are disabled there that normally hide surfaces that should be invisible anyway.
Can not reproduce. Can you provide more details about your system?
