bug#16034: 24.3.50; scrolling is very long to happen or never happen

[Thierry Volpiatto]

Hi all,

1) Go to scratch buffer

2) `switch-to-buffer-other-window' in a consequent buffer

3) eval this code:

(with-selected-window (next-window) (scroll-up 12))


This return nil as expected but the next window to the one handling
"*scratch*" doesn't move, but wait a certain time (up to one minute or
more sometimes) and the window finish to scroll.

Sometimes it doesn't scroll at all but maybe I don't wait enough.
