Don't.  I completely forgot that we do replace_buffer_in_windows_safely
when that fails which even recreates *scratch* when no other buffer is
found.

These confirm what you say above.  Maybe we get that dead buffer via
`set-window-configuration'?  Could

	  else if (!NILP (w->start))
	    /* Leaf window has no live buffer, get one.  */

have failed?  Can a "live window" have w->start equal nil?
