bug#71274: 30.0.50; assertion failed: w->window_end_valid, in find_first_unchanged_at_end_row

[Daniel Clemente]

Thanks, well, I'm not seeing these errors anymore. I don't have a
formula to reproduce the bug, but I trust the patch will help and this
bug can be closed.

I don't much knowledge about try_window_id. Could this change create
new situations in which a window isn't fully redisplayed but it
should?
I saw a redisplay issue after resizing the window (mangled text) but I
don't think it's related to this bug because I placed a breakpoint on
your new code and it didn't run.  I posted some details at 71289.
