I am on a PC with a 100% fresh and vanilla .minecraft and also noticing this happening near torches (ground or wall placed). I am also 90% sure that the fire animation for the furnace produces this effect as well. I kept thinking I was seeing things. But alas I was not. Its near impossible to catch a screen shot of it. I do have some game play video that features this effect. I have also noticed a similar effect with rain water drips/splashes, but have not filed a bug for that one.
