Thanks.

With the commands below, and the make-network-process loop, I can indeed
see no screen updates.  I'll try to find other ways to trigger the bug.

The only thing that's being triggered is the call to cursor_to, but that
should probably not have any effect.  I've included it below, though.

set logging redirect on
