Patrick,
The only time I have ever seen anything like that was in Kenwood
rechargeable handie talkie batteries from the late 70's / early 80's.
Never with a non rechargeable battery.

Hi Everyone,
Something odd happened tonight. I found my Super Radio II dead. So I figured
the batteries were dead. I went to check them and found something odd. Two of
the six batteries had reversed polarity! In my over 50 years in electronics I
have never found that. The batteries are good Duracell. Has this happened to
anyone else? With electronics I guess anything is possible. Two batteries were
at about 1V, two were nearly dead and the two that reversed polarity were at
about 1/2V. Fortunately the radio is fine. I replaced the batteries. This may
be more common, but I have never seen it.
