I've been able to reproduce the bug by clicking the small dart above the
scrollbar of a right window and subsequently scrolling the mouse-wheel.
In that case the `event' argument passed to `scroll-bar-toolkit-scroll'
invariantly names the left (sometimes the minibuffer) window.  When I
sample the mouse explicitly the bug doesn't occur.  Davide, could you
try to append the code below to your .emacs and see whether it makes the
bug go away?

Thanks, martin.
