You can work around this by deleting section breaks, copying the text (minus the final paragraph mark) and pasting into a new document. Then you would have to recreate the section breaks (and the section formatting) of course.
I haven't been able to figure out what is causing the issue, at least not yet. But I'll think about it a bit more... :-)
