Ah, so this bug should actually be considered fixed, not wontfix.

    * Changes in Emacs 24.4

    *** New option `scroll-bar-adjust-thumb-portion'.
    Available only on X, this option allows you to control over-scrolling
    using the scroll bar (i.e., dragging the thumb down even when the end
    of the buffer is visible).

I personally have

    (define-key global-map [down] 'scroll-up-line)
    (define-key global-map [up] 'scroll-down-line)

in my .emacs, so it seems strange to have the scroll bar already all the
way to the bottom, when I'm still able to scroll farther.
