Description: There seem to be a lot of frozen CHAT carets lying around in my CHAT window nowadays.  I get them when typing caret positioning commands in EMACS.  E.g., after ↑P''s, ↑N''s, ↑E''s, & ↑A''s while using EMACS.  I''ve put Frequency = Intermittent, but I would guess 50% (the half of the time the caret is up).'

Caretology has substantially changed since Apr 26, and I can''t reproduce this in the latest sysout.  So I''m declining this AR.  Feel free to reopen it if you have this problem in the new sysout.'
