Using Ubuntu GNU/Linux and launching emacs -q on the pretest:

M-x find-function RET format-message RET
M-x load-theme RET wombat RET
C-5 C-v C-5 C-v

There are a few horizontal blue lines visible on the last line of:

> {
>    return styled_format (nargs, args, true);
> }

so that it looks a little like this instead:

> }                                        ___   _    ____ __

This was the only easily reproducible case I could come up with, but
I've seen the problem elsewhere several times in daily use with
26.0.90.  In contrast I never saw anything similar occur in 25.3.

I don't see this on my system (which is not GNU/Linux).

I don't see it on my Debian GNU/Linux box either (tried with both lucid
and gtk builds).  Does disabling double buffering have any effect?
Perhaps installed fonts could also be significant?

Yes, inhibiting double buffering fixes it.

Sigh.

Although it is strange that double buffering would cause this kind of
problems.

It is.  I'm also surprised nobody else has reported the bug yet, since
my setup is bog-standard.  Maybe the problem is hardware-related.
