Then it reproduces. But since I'm not seeing the output live, I can't 
answer the question "what is printed when the problem happens".

I'm attaching four logs anyway: alternating between when the problem 
reproduced, and when it did not. Otherwise the scenario was almost or 
exactly the same, up to the characters typed.

out1.txt and out3.txt - reproduced.
out2.txt and out4.txt - did not.

Not sure what you mean. 'emacs -nw'? Or run a separate X server and 
Emacs inside it, launched from a tty?

I'd have to look up how to do that. Last type I typed 'startx' was >10 
years ago.
