bug#23279: display mucks up

[Rob Dunne]

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.

i'm unable to reproduce this on my Debian Jessie x86_64 system, 
having tried 24.3, 24.5, a recent emacs-25 branch build, and a 
recent master branch build.

Does your version of Emacs come from an Ubuntu package, or did you 
manually compile it yourself?

HI All,

emacs was installed from an ubuntu package (see below).
I just compiled emacs-24.5 from source and it is having the same problem.

I tried reproducing this on Emacs 27, but was unable to.  Are you
still seeing this using a more recent version of Emacs, for example
the latest release 26.3?

If I don't hear back from you within a couple of weeks, I'll just
close this bug as unreproducible.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
