Basically, when using Shift+Page{Up,Down}, the display tends to lack one
keypress behind.  So if you change direction, it appears as if the first
move is in the wrong direction.

It may well be relevant that I am using Cinnamon as my desktop.  Maybe
it is less generous with expose or other events.

It also helps if there is no other action on the screen (no other
window).  My terminal window is always vertically maximized and there
are several terminal tabs in it.  It's not perfectly reproducible, but
doing S-PageUp and S-PageDown several times in a row is rather likely to
trigger it.  Sometimes the cursor blinking causes a refresh, so it's
also more likely with the cursor off-screen.
