From what you describe, it seems it's failing to draw the object somehow and stores a blank picture on the cache. When you do an operation, you are no longer looking at the original list, but a new object containing the result. It should also appear if you create more than 32 new obejcts on the stack, to "push" that object to fall out of the cache and be redrawn.
However, this is just a theory because I can't reproduce it. I tried creating a long list:

Code:


<< { } 1 1000 FOR K K INV ADD NEXT >>

The INV is to get a lot of digits, making the list larger to display.
Then I ran the above at different precisions so the list would decompile to a longer or shorter string but couldn't see the effect at all.

Do you have any means to cause the glitch consistently?
