We're running (a somewhat hacked, I think) Gosmacs #85 here, and I've
noticed the following problem: suppose you have wrap-long-lines set ON
and n lines actually wrap around.  This means that your window is
showing n fewer real lines of text than would happen if wrap-long-lines
were OFF.  Now if you do a next-page, emacs doesn't account for this
fact (that there are n fewer lines in the window) and moves forward n
too many lines.  If enough lines in a window wrap around, you can
actually skip right over text in the buffer, without ever seeing it,
just by using next-page.  (BTW, I get a similar problem by using
end-of-window in a window with lines that wrap around.)

So, has anyone else seen this?  Is it peculiar to #85, is it peculiar
to what we're running at Berkeley, does anyone have a fix for it?

Thanks.
