Subject: bug#16697: 24.3.50; ERC scrolltobottom module does not work anymore

From: Ivan Kanis <[email-masked]>

1) emacs -Q
2) eval (setq erc-modules '(scrolltobottom)) in *scratch*
3) M-x erc RET RET RET

Wait for the window to fill up.

I expect the prompt to stay at the bottom as it used to in 24.3.
