Well, it's the kind of intermittent problem that can be really awkward
to spot and track down, but I think it may occasionally have happened
to me. But it always seemed to be when the page load was taking its
time, and I assumed it was because the anchor wasn't there to jump to
yet. May or may not be the same problem though, and certainly doesn't
go very far in diagnosing it...
