> Can you tell me how to reproduce this?  I don't see this in the recipe

I can reproduce something similar here but it hardly makes sense to
share my recipe.  The bug manifests itself such that after an implicit
`forward-line' the cursor appears stuck in a partially visible line at
the bottom of a window.  That window has a sibling on the right.  On
Windows these siblings must be in the lower half of a split frame.  On
Gtk no vertical splitting is needed.  The cursor continues to move by
one line when keeping the down key (which implicitly runs `forward-line'
here) pressed for some three seconds and gets stuck again immediately.

Some additional particularities:

(1) The bug is not reproducible with Emacs 24-4, only with current
    trunk.

(2) My settings are needed and must be in .emacs.  Starting emacs -Q,
    putting my .emacs contents in *scratch* and doing an `eval-buffer'
    there does not reproduce it.

(3) My frame must be fully maximized.  Any other form of maximization
    doesn't trigger it.

(4) Your patch doesn't fix it.  A breakpoint set there is never hit.

The bug might be related to your changes from 2014-07-09.  For example
the following excerpt from a gdb session seems suspicious (the build is
with your patch but it doesn't matter):

Lisp Backtrace:
"redisplay_internal (C function)" (0x206c3b4)
(gdb) p new_vpos
$1 = 426
(gdb) p w->cursor.y
$2 = 432
(gdb)

In this particular case the display should be scrolled since otherwise
point ends up on the partially visible line.  But the test

	  if (new_vpos >= w->cursor.y)

fails to trigger that.
