Machine type: 8.0 and 8.1 SPARC (dialups, but that shouldn't matter).
emacs mh mode saves the window state when it starts and on a 'q'
command restores the previous window configuration. If menu-bar-mode
has been used to toggle the menu bar while using mh mode it will
restore the wrong window state.
To reproduce:
emacs -e discuss -e mh-rmail [in text mode; I haven't
tried it using X]
M-x menu-bar-mode [turn off menu bar]
q
You will be in discuss mode but discuss will not use the top line.
The top line will contain leftover text from mh mode until a screen
refresh, after which it will be blank.
