Well, unless you're looking for it, it's not really very noticeable unless you're looking at something that makes it obvious (such as a sprite with a perfectly round circle - I think this may be what someone in the Mytheology thread was talking about when they noticed the eye sprites were slightly "flattened".)
It's very noticeable if you use windowed mode and modify the dimensions using the command line. For instance, launch specifying 1200x900, which is 4x3 aspect ratio, and then compare with 1280x1024 (5x4 - will appear slightly narrower) and then 1680 x 1050 (16x10, will appear wider.)
Just in case it's platform specific, I'm testing using version 3.24 on Windows 7 64 bit.
