I have reproduced it on today's CVS, my mingw build, Windows XP SP2.

Steps to reproduce:

- Set your .emacs file to the minimum reported by Markus
- Dismiss welcome screen and reach *scratch*
- Move point to first line (;; This buffer..)
- Resize window width to less than 21: arrows will appear in the left fringe
- Resize window width to exactly 21, so left fringe arrows disappear
- Move point right twice

What's interesting is, as the window width goes below 21, the buffer starts to 
scroll itself horizontally, such that arrows appear in the left fringe.  But 
when you click on the left fringe, the buffer scrolls in the opposite direction 
expected.  You also can't move point to column 0 anymore.
