(a) Thanks David (and/or Cody) for the fix.

(b) What do i need to do to get the fix? I did:
      sudo apt-get install pantheon-terminal
     This generated some activity.

     I then did "dpkg -s pantheon-terminal" and got
     a version number of 0.1-0~r423+pkg10~precise1

     But the behavior seems unchanged.

(Or maybe i'm updating prematurely?)

Thanks in advance for any info, and thanks again for figuring out and
fixing the bug.
