Scrollbars disappear when opening a new tab in the gnome-terminal window

[Guruprasad]

When a new tab in a gnome-terminal window is opened, the vertical scroll bars in both the tabs disappear. Also there is a transparent region in the bottom of the window that is created, that hides the current prompt and cursor. Screenshot of the normal terminal with one tab and the abnormal one with 2 tabs attached.P

Not always reproducible, but happens randomly which could mean issues with the desktop environment/unity/gtk rather than gnome-terminal.

I've tried to reproduce this bug under g-t 3.6.0 .

Does anyone know whether this bug still affects any LTE releases?

Aw, forgot to mention that I couldn't reproduce it under g-t 3.6.0 (ubuntu 12.10) :)
