This is very weird glass bug on Extreme Survival Minetest (that could possibly be on default one too)... I have no idea wth is this. Confirmed by other person. What is interesting is it changes colours periodically... from orange to blue or whatever (but I have not observed exact moment).
Specs: MT 0.4.13 64bit msvc on Win7 64bit, ATI Radeon HD 6870, Catalyst 15.7.1

I have seen it too on some of the servers OldCoder hosts. With a difference, the glass is not "filled" with colour, it has some sort of "carpet" inside it. Aside from that, it's the same.

That's thanks to the param2 being non-zero. If its non-zero, the param2 displays some "interior volume level" of some sort. It has been added by commit ea6c3835debfffa22163f048eae57928311143c4 . I don't know why RBA added it, ask him.
But its no bug.

est31: it is not working as it should be, so it is a bug.

Only if something isn't expected doesn't mean its a bug. If you don't like these "volume levels", then remove the glass block and place it again. The param2 should be reset to 0.

This is not a bug, but improper use of glasslike framed drawtype. Param2 is meant for interior volume level, special tiles shall hold textures for it. Its meant for water/lava or whatever tanks etc.
Sample mod that uses it is plasma lamp for example:

Nice water tanks! I wonder if it could be used for a barrel (a mesh by now) as well.
