Public bug reported:

I'll attach a script that reveals this bug.  As long as the script works
(i.e., it reveals the bug), you will see what I mean.

I am seeing this in Dapper.  I've seen it before, perhaps in Breezy, but
I didn't bother to try to reproduce it, at that point.  I suspect it's
in all versions of Ubuntu.

** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Untriaged => Low
