  Gotcha.  Tell us, what is your PS1 setting?  And does the bug go away if you
expand or shrink the window so that it's showing a different number of lines
of the man page at one time?  I wonder if it is because there is some
highlighted text very last thing on the page and 'less' leaves the highlight
setting in effect when it exits.
