Do you see this in "emacs -Q"? If not, can you tell which
customizations are necessary to reproduce the problem? If it does
occur in "emacs -Q", could you please describe the exact sequence of
actions to reproduce it? I cannot reproduce it on my system in
"emacs -Q", but maybe I'm missing something.
Thanks.
