Indeed so. Now here's where I eat humble pie. I ran an emerge -e world
overnight (for other reasons) and now I can't reproduce the strangeness[1].

[1] Perhaps I shouldn't mention Konsole, of which I have four instances on
one desktop. In two of them, turning the mouse wheel scrolls the output as
expected, but in the other two it scrolls the command-line buffer! I assume
this is just one more artefact of the mess that is KDE these days.
