Could someone investigate this display bug?

Has anyone taken a look at this?

The following probably is a small bug in display.  Do:

emacs-21.3.50 -q --eval '(blink-cursor-mode 0)' &
C-x 5 2

Then put the two frames on the screen so that they do not overlap.

C-h i

Put the cursor on the "T" right after *Menu: in:

* Menu: The list of major topics begins on the next line.

by clicking with mouse-1.

Click on the other frame. Then click, with mouse-1, on the "d" of dir in:

File: dir    Node: Top    This is the top of the INFO tree

(If you accidentally click somewhat too low, the bug may not show up.)

We now have both a real and a fake cursor.  It is possible to create
as many fake cursors as you like this way.  The problem is however not
too bad: a simple C-l makes all of the fake cursors disappear, with
only the real one remaining.

Sincerely,

Luc.
