To clarify my observation:  If I comment out just the two calls to wset_update_mode_line that are in window_scroll_pixel_based, then the mouse wheel scrolling problem with multiple frames goes away, but the problem with scrolling via the scroll bars remains; if I comment out all five calls to wset_update_mode which are in window.c, then in addition the scroll-bar problem goes away (with multiple frames). I just wanted to know whether Martin has an idea which of the remaining three calls (when they are not out-commented) could be responsible for the scroll-bar problem.
