GNU Emacs 19.25.1 of Tue Jun 28 1994 on totoro.bio.indiana.edu
(mips-dec-ultrix4.3)

Start Emacs -q.

Type `M-x standard-display-european RET'.

Now type `this is a test' in the *scratch* buffer.  The new text
appears as little form-feed glyphs (two F's squished into a single
character cell) on my display.

Once you hit return, or move back into the midst line and type some
new text, the line is redisplayed correctly.

Since this only seems to happen to freshly-typed characters at the end
of the line, I suspect it's a problem in direct_output_for_insert.
The argument `g' seems to be getting clobbered, although I don't see
why.
