Subject: bug#15716: 24.3.50; redisplay bug for display-table update

This seems to be a regression; I have never seen it before.
See attached screenshots, from the same session. The bad one (NG) was
taken after `C-l', which should have taken care of any redisplay
problem. The good one (OK) was taken after then iconifying (thumbifying,
actually) and then restoring the frame - that took care of the display
problem.
The part of the displayed buffer that got messed up is the result of
modifying the display table for character ^L - what looks like a sunken
line of text "Section (Printable Page)" is in fact just a ^L character.
The code that does this is here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs-en/download/pp-c-l.el.
This is the part of the code that updates the display table:
(lambda (window)
(let ((display-table (or (window-display-table window)
(make-display-table))))
(aset display-table ?\014 (and pretty-control-l-mode
(pp^L-^L-display-table-entry window)))
(set-window-display-table window display-table)))
BTW/FWIW - I think I have also noticed, with this build (perhaps other
recent builds too?), the need to hit `C-l' more often. Until now I have
probably used `C-l' only a few times over the last decade or so - hasn't
been needed. (In the old days it was needed much more often.)
HTH.
