I'm not sure why we have these failures to communicate.

The bug _is_ caused by setting scroll-conservatively to 10000 in
comint buffers as a buffer local variable. Let-binding it back to 0 in
the relevant command does not help (because of when redisplay
happens).

The offered solutions are:

1) Don't set it to 10000 in comint buffers, since it doesn't seem to
   be needed.

2) Make it a variable that should not be set directly, only via M-x
   customize or a function that sets scroll-conservatively at the same
   time.
