Subject: 24.4; rgrep doesn't obey grep-scroll-output
Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2014 18:40:23 +0200

To reproduce:

  emacs -Q
  M-: (setq-default grep-scroll-output t) RET
  M-x rgrep RET <any arguments and directory you want here> RET

Result: the *grep* buffer is not scrolled to follow EOB, but instead
Emacs shows the top of the buffer all the time.

If I invoke "M-x grep" instead, the buffer is scrolled as expected.

We were shooting ourselves in the foot by forcing the window-start of
the *grep* buffer.

Fixed in revision 117630 on the emacs-24 branch.
