For the record: I've just noticed the following inconsistency:

The same Emacs (-Q) binary[1] have different behaviors on different
MS-Windows variants.  With w32-scroll-modifier set to nil:
* On Windows 7 and 10,  the scroll-lock key does _not_ toggle the setting.
* On Windows 2003 server,  the scroll-lock key _does_ toggle the setting.
