Yes, the error is reproducible.

Steps to recreate the bug:
1. Start gedit:
2. Type in following text:
"Pashtak 1:

Dein dunkles Geheimnis ist"
3. Activate Spell-Checker if not already happened.
4. print the text.

(corrisponding to german language and spell-checker) The spell-checker will underline "Pashtak" with red underlines, because it doesn't know this Name. also between the two lines. the empty line gets an invisible underlined character. See attachment.

Sorry for my engrish xD
