I see the same with 25.0.95. I think it's not a bug, it's simply that
the window point is stored separately. You can use
(with-current-buffer "*scratch*"
(insert "test\n")
(set-window-point (get-buffer-window) (point-max)))
to set it. Or if there are multiple windows and you want to set the
point in all of them:
(with-current-buffer "*scratch*"
(insert "test\n")
(dolist (w (get-buffer-window-list))
(set-window-point w (point-max))))
