That will take a while.  I'll have to set up something at home
specifically with the goal of reproducing the error.  At the moment it
looks like some sort of race between decisions made at different levels
of the stack mintty / tmux / mosh / screen since so far I've not been
able to reproduce if I take out one of these.

Are earlier versions of mintty, specifically the last versions of the
2.6 series, still available somewhere?
You can download older sources from https://github.com/mintty/mintty/releases and build them yourself. Older versions may need some source or makefile tweaks to compile, I should publish my notes about this.

I'm almost certain that these
sort of things didn't happen before October or November last year.  Of
course it might have been another update of the other programs involved
as well.
I would suspect the latter as there have not been recent changes (since 2.2.1) in the actual terminal emulation.

Actually I have found a bug in the combination of auto wraparound mode with scrolling region margins and origin mode.
Once fixed, that could even affect the issue, we'll see.
