When 'Other Filtering' was introduced the idea of what constituted a displayed row changed. No longer was any call to task_show assured of consuming one screen row. Now the determining factor was whether or not the rows were empty. This worked Ok until a certain Find string was active then the entire display could be corrupted. With Find active, the task_show() function alters each returned row while highlighting each visible match. If the search was on a single byte value & matched at the beginning of a row the match got overwritten with '\0' which then appears empty upon return to window_show(). So that row would not be counted as having been shown. This was best illustrated with a Find on a single ' '. This patch will restore proper 'Find/Locate' behavior.

Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
email without need for an account.
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
to the CFLAGS variable.
