(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at
the time.)

I'm unable to reproduce the problem in Emacs 28, so I'm going to go
ahead and guess that this has been fixed in the years since it was
reported, and I'm closing this bug report. If this is still a problem,
please respond to the debbugs address and we'll reopen.
