I have a similar problem that occurs with different versions of
AUCTeX and XEmacs on MS Windows. It may be related to the
previously posted problem: each time, that I try to scroll a
buffer containing a LaTeX document, the buffer seems to be hooked
as the cursor reaches the top or the bottom of the
frame. However, this behavior applies, if the mouse-wheel or the
scroll-bar is used. As long as the cursor moves inside the frame,
scrolling works smoothly.

When the buffer is hooked, I have to wait a noticeable moment
before scrolling continues, but sometimes XEmacs freezes and I
have to click on the window title of an other program that is
running concurrently. I never experienced such a behavior in
other modes running within XEmacs. Here again: is it a bug of
XEmacs or AUCTeX?
