Its intermittent but its occurence and display is far reduced.  Even when it happens it is not as dramatic and distracting as it once was.

You can probably close this now.  If it returns I'll try to debug it better.  Thanks

Do you still see this problem with Emacs 23.1?  (I haven't been able to
reproduce it).
