bug#8468: 24.0.50; No redisplay after C-h i when scroll-margin is set

[Ralf Angeli]

If you start Emacs with

emacs -Q --eval '(setq scroll-margin 1)'

and type `C-h i' the window contents will not be updated, i.e. you will
look at the *scratch* buffer until you type `C-l'.  I see this behavior
as well when composing follow-up messages in Gnus.

This happens with a checkout done today.

Looks like the recentering fix for Bug#6671 broke something; I see the
bug in revision 103793, but not in revision 103791.

Eli, could you investigate?

Should be fixed now (revision 103889 on the trunk).
