There is a known bug in Gtk that causes this kind of problem (see C-h
C-p).  But your bug-report was sent from an Emacs built with Xaw3d
rather than Gtk, so could you please confirm if you've seen this problem
only with a Gtk-version of Emacs or also with a non-Gtk version of Emacs?

Also, if it's not the Gtk bug, could you check whether you can still
reproduce the bug with Emacs-23.2 (released about a year ago) or, better
yet, with the brand new 23.2.90 pretest (to become 23.3)?
