Hi,

I recently switched from Emacs 23 to the current version on the emacs-24 
branch (r108014) and bumped into a strange behaviour of bury-buffer at 
the start of a session. I'm using desktop.el and (global-set-key "\C-xy" 
'bury-buffer) in .emacs (because I have a bad memory and like to bury 
stuff ;-). Every time I start Emacs, I see the correct buffer, i.e. the 
one I used before I closed Emacs previously. I edit that buffer a bit 
and bury it. In my case, bury-buffer switches to the wrong buffer. 
Instead of switching to the buffer next in line (so to speak), 
bury-buffer switches to what seems to be the last buffer in the list of 
all buffers.

Here's a little example in form of a "emacs -Q" recipe:
3 C-x C-s 3 RET
C-x b 2 RET
2 C-x C-s 2 RET
C-x b 1 RET
1 C-x C-s 1 RET
M-x desktop-save <filename>

This should leave you with with three saved buffers in the order 1-2-3 
and a desktop file. C-x C-b should be able to confirm the buffer order.

Now close Emacs, start a fresh one and M-x desktop-read your desktop 
file. You should see buffer 1. So far, so good. Now M-x bury-buffer. I'd 
expect to see buffer 2 now, instead Emacs switched to buffer 3. If you 
C-x C-b now, you'll see that the buffer list says that buffer 2 is up 
front, although you're staring at buffer 3. This bug hits you only at 
the very beginning of a session. I can continue to bury buffers using 
C-x y and end up with buffers apparently from the end of the buffer 
list, instead of from the top. But some actions fix this, like switching 
a buffer once using C-x b. Afterwards the bug is nowhere to be found.

The last few days I started work with a strange 
I-could-swear-that-wasnt-the-file-I-was-working-on-yesterday-before-I-went-home 
feeling :-D. Any ideas on how to get rid of that feeling are very 
welcome :-).

Kind regards,
Tobias
