That's definitely weird! My first thought would be that it's possibly a profile bug; check ~/.bash_profile , ~/.bashrc and /etc/profile.d/ for anything that looks odd. Try as a different user; does it happen there?
The behavior seems to have changed after yesterday's updates. It occurs on the first login after boot in the virtual consoles. But any logins by any user in a virtual console after that is fine. (root and 2 users, including the first user to log in). However, if I use less to look at a file, it still has the behavior for every user - I have to hit space to get past the message to see the file. In X, doing an su to a user other than the session belongs to still has the behavior. I looked at the bash files, and didn't see anything that would cause this. It started occurring with no changes to any of those files. Perhaps there was a configuration redefinition, and an option behaves differently?
These are the last changes within a reasonable timeframe to /etc/profile.d. Nothing there jumps out at me as a possible cause.

It's annoying, but not a show stopper now that I know about it. I'll keep investigating.
