SharePoint alert email indicates fields have changed that haven't

Question

In particular, the "Person or Group" fields behave this way. When I edit an item (without modifying the value in the person column) in the alert I get the following:

  chloraphil; chloraphil chloraphil

Obviously, typical SharePoint behavior is for changed fields to have the previous value in strikethrough and the new value next to it.

Note that expected behavior is for it to not display as edited - it should just show "chloraphil."

EDIT: This only seems to be a problem with my custom list definition with Event Receivers and all. I could not replicate on a normal list.

EDIT2: This happens even if I disable the ItemUpdating and ItemUpdated event receivers. What could be causing this?
