More information was requested, but none was given within 12 months.

It also seems likely that this is not a bug in Emacs.
I'm therefore closing this bug. If this is still an issue, please
reply to this email (use "Reply to all" in your email client) and we
can reopen the bug report.

In the upper window of a frame I had several hundred lines containing the
full paths of filenames within quotation marks -- all containing non-ASCII
accented European characters -- and in the lower window a Windows shell.
From the shell window I used a macro to change windows, grab a file name,
then return to the shell window and issue
del {filename within quotation marks}
After confirming that this was working as desired, I issued a command to
repeat the macro indefinitely. As lines scrolled in the shell window I
remarked some errors in the display there: certain improper bits were being
displayed rather consistently. When the run was finished, I grabbed a
screen shot of the quiescent state (attached) showing some of these.
Scrolling lines off the bottom of the window and then back on caused them
to redisplay properly.
