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.
