Thanks for your bugreport.

I tried to reproduce this here with lynx-cur inside gnome-terminal but
wasn't successful. I got the prompt, looked at the diff (with less),
scolled up and down a couple of times - all worked fine. I also tried
a couple of times going back and forth between "diff" and overview but
could not trigger the issue.
