Thanks for this detailed description. Especially for the phrase
"dialog buttons". I don't have any dialog buttons because I have set
'aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts "true";'.

Any chance that you (Manuel) don't have that setting and Andrew has
it? I suspect that this issue only shows up if
aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts is set to "true".
