Sorry I wasn't clear!

With my .emacs:
  * the region face definition (above) looks right
  * transient-mark-mode is on
  * the region is active
  * I *cannot* see the region!

With -q:
  * the region face definition (above) looks right
  * transient-mark-mode is on
  * the region is active
  * I *can* see the region.

I should also point out that I had this problem with emacs21
immediately after upgrading Ubuntu to gutsy, and then upgraded to
emacs22 in the (mistaken) hope of fixing it.
