That's not *vanilla*!
Please recompile without *any* local changes (no site-load, nothing).

Then please note that the word "because" in English expresses
a causal relation.  E.g when you say "because of loading disp-table", you
actually imply that the *cause* of the problem is the at of loading
disp-table.

If I didn't believe the same thing, I wouldn't be trying to help you
debug this.

There is no such thing as "switching disp-table ON".  Disp-table.el is just
a set of functions, loaded on demand; nothing more.  Please stop obsessing
over it so we can try to get to the actual source of your problem.
