Fixed in git, commit ec9a11c7.

There is a much simpler reproduction recipe: just run nano and type: ^W ^G ^X.  Ouch!  :|

The offending commit is 5817e83e: "be more sparing in redrawing things when exiting from help viewer".  Oops.

To reproduce, run:

  src/nano --ignore +9 README

Then type: <Ctrl+Shift+Down> ^T ^G ^X

Result: nano exits from the help viewer but the help text remains on the screen, it is not replaced with the text of the buffer.

Bug exists since version 4.3.
