   Not surprising, given the comment that precedes it (in the 21.3 source):

Actually, `set-window-start' worked OK in 20,7 and that comment was
already there,  The only change in the function since 20.7 apparently
is that:

CHECK_NUMBER_COERCE_MARKER (pos, 1);

got changed into:

CHECK_NUMBER_COERCE_MARKER (pos);

which seems harmless.

So the problem would appear to be not in `set-window-start', but
elsewhere.
