Ok, somehow VM has gotten confused about where the end of the "hidden" headers
is in one of my messages.  This message (and only this message) always has the
X-VM-v5-Data and References headers displayed, and I don't understand why.
The headers look like (abbreviated:)

You see that VM has cached "^X-Windows:" as the end of the hidden headers.
But it's behaving as if "^X-VM-v5-Data:" is the end of the hidden headers
instead.  Quitting and restarting doesn't fix it.
