Could you show a precise recipe for reproducing this, starting with
"emacs -Q"?  I tried to reproduce with today's trunk, but couldn't.
Perhaps I don't understand what you mean by "side by side" or don't
invoke eval-last-sexp as you do.

Does the problem depend on the frame/window size?  Does it appear in
"emacs -nw" as well as in GUI sessions?  And what OS is that?

Thanks.
