Problem found - its a bug in my code.
ncurses and my screen library are innocent.
The underlying bug was a call the editor made to memcpy with overlapping
buffers.
Historically, it seems the result has always been as if data was copied in
forward order, but now, on Fedora 14 x86_64, the results can (legally) be a
mess.
Perhaps they've been tuning the hand optimized assembler string routines.
Thanks for your help.
