0. emacs -Q
1. Type `C-x 3' to split the selected window into two side-by-side
   windows.
2. Sanity check: click mouse-1 on the divider between the mode lines,
   and observe that by dragging the mouse you can move the vertical
   boundary between the windows to the left or right.
3. In the menu Options->Show/Hide->Scroll-bar click the "On the Left"
   button to make the scroll bars appear on the left side of the
   windows.
4. Repeat step 2.
=> The vertical boundary between the windows does not change, but
   instead the echo area displays the message "No window on the right of
   this one" (although the selected window is the one on the left).

This is a regression from Emacs 24.5, where step 4 works just like step
2.  Git bisect identifies the following as the responsible commit:

    Improve mouse dragging of frame edges.
    
    * keyboard.c (make_lispy_position): Return coordinates also when
    on scroll bars, fringes, margins or not in a window.
    * xdisp.c (show_mouse_face): Don't change cursor face during
    mouse tracking.
    * mouse.el (mouse-drag-line): Don't use mouse-pixel-position.
    Calculate increment from last position instead of window edge.
    Add right- and bottom-divider bindings to transient map.
