Only for a jump scroll.  When dragging or scrolling by page, PORTION passed to 
x_send_scroll_bar_event is zero, as is WHOLE. 
For jump scroll, PORTION is the position of the scroll bar thumb that we jump 
to.
 
The values of PORTION in x_send_scroll_bar_event and 
x_set_toolkit_scroll_bar_thumb are different.  The first has values as defined 
by the scroll bar.  For Gtk+, Motif and Xaw this is a value between 0 or 1 and 
10000000.

The values to x_set_toolkit_scroll_bar_thumb are in characters, i.e. show 
PORTION characters for the buffer, starting at character POSITION.  The buffer 
has a total of WHOLE characters.
