Emacs-24.2.92

emacs -Q

1. Visit a file of non-trivial length in a window.
2. Scroll to a point distant from the beginning-of-buffer.
3. M-x linum-mode.  Line numbers are now displayed.
4. M-<
5. C-<space>
    The line numbers are now not displayed.
6. Perform any command which moves point.
    The line numbers are displayed again.

This lack of line number display after 5 must surely be a bug.  This
behaviour is observed both under X11 and in a Linux tty.

FWIW I tried on two systems and could not reproduce that.

Try nlinum.el from GNU ELPA?

Hmm.  Wierd.  I've just reconfigured 24.2.92 with no arguments and
rebuilt it (on a bog standard GNU system).  I still get the error (in a
Linux tty).

That appears to work properly.

Are you still seeing this problem in Emacs 24.3?

I can't reproduce it any more.  I don't use linum-mode regularly, so I
didn't notice when it stopped failing.  If it ever did.  Hmm.....
