I would like to use the tocloft package for customizing the table of contents in my "book" document. However, when I include this package, the table of contents shifts upward by the line width of a single TOC entry. What could be the issue?



The minimal example in this case is surprisingly minimal:



documentclassbook
usepackagetocloft

begindocument
tableofcontents
chapterFirst chapter
sectionA section
enddocument


A tip for those who don't immediately see a visual difference: It helps to print out page 1 before and after commenting out usepackagetocloft and then place the sheets of paper on top of each other and hold them up to the light. (I'm serious.)
