Oh, this is a Linux box.  I've pretty much tracked the strangeness down.
The garbage is only written to the saved file/current buffer after an
autosave occurs.

That being said, is there a way to disable the autosave(or if I'm using
the incorrect term there, the backup save to filename.tm~).

Thanks,
Scruff
