SQLPlus clear screen oddity

Client: Oracle 8.1.7 on NT 4 Workstation

Take a look at this spooled output from SQLPlus, and notice what happens to the column label after the 'clear screen'. This happens in SQLPLUS.exe, not in SQLPLUSW.exe.

SQL> connect system_at_lcopdb
Connected.
SQL> select name from v$database;

NAME


LCOPDB SQL> clear screen

SQL> select name from v$database;
 clsNAME


LCOPDB SQL> disconnect
Disconnected from Oracle8 Release 8.0.5.1.1 - Production PL/SQL Release 8.0.5.1.0 - Production
SQL> spool off
