Bug Description
I'll attach a script that reveals this bug. As long as the script works (i.e., it reveals the bug), you will see what I mean.
I am seeing this in Dapper. I've seen it before, perhaps in Breezy, but I didn't bother to try to reproduce it, at that point. I suspect it's in all versions of Ubuntu.
