No, that's not what I see. The last line can be scrolled completely off of the
screen, so all that can be seen is blank space.

And yes, I do see the same thing in Emacs 22.3. But *not* in Emacs 21.3 or Emacs
20.7 (-q for all three).

Even if what you say were the case, no, that's wouldn't be normal.

emacs -Q
C-x C-f /path/to/allout.el
C-x 1
Scroll down using mouse on scroll-bar slider. You can scroll so that no text is
visible, all text is above the (single) window. Same thing even if there are
other windows above or below.

Same with any other large file.

Try it with a small file, autoarg.el. The overshoot possible is only about 6
lines in that case. The larger the file, the larger the overshoot, with a full
blank window maximum (last line just off the window).

Clear enough? Do you see something different from this?
