I have seen what you mention.  I have also seen it in MSDOS with the
ansi.sys driver installed. It doesn't happen in DOS with nanci.sys
installed. Since xenix and ansi.sys were written by Microsoft I suspect
an error in the implementation.

If you're still under service, complain. It's been this was for years.
