This is the intended behavior.  `display-buffer-at-bottom' and
`display-buffer--maybe-pop-up-frame-or-window' also display the buffer a
second time even if it's already shown.  The correct use of this is to
try `display-buffer-reuse-window' before `display-buffer-below-selected'.

Can you please tell me which commit this was.  I don't have git.

Thanks, martin
