Normally my minibuffer is one character tall. Here it is about 11 or 12 because 
the popup resizes the minibuffer.

AND I just confirmed that this happens even when I move my .emacs to the side, 
so this has been introduced by either emacs 24.4.1 or debian's site plugins.

In fact it looks like debian have done something because

  /usr/bin/emacs --no-init-file --no-site-file

and this goes away.

Sorry all, I should have checked this before posting to the group.
