This would appear to be the same as PR#7277. That too is not really
reproducible.

Then I opened a help page by typing
the R help page opened in a different (system?) font and the font in
the console also changed to the same bold-face, non-proportional font.
Then when I typed another help command, the console completely blanked
out.
It is almost certainly not blank, just using the wrong foreground colour.
There seems to be some strange interaction going on between new
windows opened by the system and the font setting in the GUI preferences.
Yes, and that is PR#7277.
