I just tried, and it seems not. Does it persist on your side? (If not,
I'd be inclined to close this bug.)
I think I could try one more thing (but not today - it's Easter Eve, and
my family will soon be awake!): checkout the Emacs version from the time
you reported this bug, compile it and see whether I could observe it.
