We have to detect the moment when the window is closed automatically
anyway. At that time we can either kill the buffer or reset
`other-window-scroll-buffer'.

How comes? Ahh... I see. If `other-window-scroll-buffer' is non-nil
and the buffer was killed in the meantime `display-buffer' throws an
arg out of range error. That's silly ... should be fixed now.

Could you try doing that? I have no idea where to start.
