With the same version, I certainly have had this happen. I have also tried 
CVS, which has that problem solved, but other things in CVS, like 
highlighting in menu options not being tracked properly are giving other 
problems, as well as an unexplainable failure of the speech system to 
initialize after one session, but that is for another topic perhaps.

I originally thought it was something to do with the application I was 
using at the time, being GAIM. I thought the flashing cursor was attracting 
Gnopernicus' attention, but I now know I am not the only one getting that 
problem.

Seems very much like a gnoperncisu problem, as I said earlier.
