I've gotten a head of merged patches. This only happens when the proposed patch for Bug 95378 is applied.
Hmmm, the reason why I couldn't repro was that I had the patch to fix this applied and not because of my previous comment.
This also occurs when table, frame, image, and OLE objects are hidden.
