No, they don't.  I just tried.

If you can reliably reproduce that, report the recipe for that using
"M-x report-emacs-bug RET".  It is best to try reproducing this
without any non-standard software such as Console 2 (after all, each
tab there is just another instance of the shell, so just opening
several shell windows should be enough to show the problem).
