Exactly the same problem occurs with GNU 17.64 when remote logged on a
4.2BSD Vax, from Sun 2/ Sun 3 Workstations running 3.0.  To reproduce
the bug, just edit with GNU long enough, going often to the background.
There does not seem to be any correlation with what state GNU was in
when you suspend it.  GNU emacs is the only program I've seen that
provokes that behaviour.
