> If I have the screen divided into two windows showing two different
> buffers and issue M-x bury-buffer on one of them, the window will show
> the same buffer that is shown in the other window.
>
> This is different from what it was in Emacs 22, and I find it very
> annoying.  Unless there is good reason for the new behaviour, the buffer
> displayed should be the "other buffer".  To reproduce:
>
> C-x 1 RET
> C-x b a RET
> C-x b b RET
> C-x b c RET
> C-x 4 b d RET
> M-x bury-buffer RET
>
> Now both windows show buffer c, while the current buffer should display
> buffer b.

Please try with ‘switch-to-visible-buffer’ customized to nil.
