Do the following: With emacs -Q eval the code below in *scratch*.  Next
do

1. M-x view-lossage

2. Go back to the *scratch* window.

3. M-x view-lossage

4. In the *scratch* window move to the line that reads
   (defvar selected-window nil), move right after selected-window,
   type C-x C-e.

Here I get #<window 6 on *Help*>.  What do you get?
