Isn't it odd, though, that in both cases the glitch is positioned around 
1/2 of the scroll-bar's horizontal coordinate (relative to the left edge 
of the frame)? When there is one scroll-bar, there is one glitch; when 
there are two scroll-bars, there are two glitches.

My guess is that might be related to the display scale (2x).
