Roland, could you take a look at this suggestion -- I've not used
djvu.el myself, so I'm not sure whether this would make sense or not:

>       (if (not (= (window-vscroll) 0))
>           (scroll-down-line 5)
>         (djvu-prev-page 1)
>         (scroll-up-command))))
>
> By adding these lines emacs can be perfectly used as a djvu reader
