In GNU Emacs 18.51.3 of Mon Jun  6 1988 on uhccux (berkeley-unix)
(but also in 18.55)
view-register fails to show the first line of a rectangle.

To duplicate, put point and mark around a rectangle, e.g.

123
456
789

C-x r R to copy this to register R, then type M-x view-register R.
The *Output* buffer will say

Register R contains the rectangle:
456
789

FIX: Delete the commented-out line below
     of the defun view-register
     in register.el (i.e. line 105 in register.el):

	    (if (consp val)
		(progn
		  (princ "the rectangle:\n")
;;		  (setq val (cdr val))
		  (while val
		    (princ (car val))
		    (terpri)
		    (setq val (cdr val))))
	      (princ "the string:\n")
	      (princ val))))))))
