Hi,

Steps to reproduce (this should be reproducible even on 80x25):
1. Use the attached emacs config file
2. C-x C-f: open a long file (lets say a few screens long)
3. C-x 3: split window right
4. C-x o: move to the right window
5. C-x b *scratch*: display the scratch buffer in the new window
6. C-x 2: split the new window below
7. C-x o: move to the lower-right window (it should display scratch buffer
as well)
8. Type "(g" (without quote ofc) and hit TAB, the auto-complete window
should appear on the lower left
9. Hit tab few more times, the upper left window will be scrolled, not the
*Completions* one.

I've attached a file help.txt describing this graphically.

All of this happens because a window that's chosen for displaying a window
for completion is created with 'display-buffer', while the window that is
scrolled with TAB during completion is choosen with a 'other-window'
('scroll-other-window') function. And as shown here those windows are not
always the same.

Exactly the same thing can happen with semantic completion. The
'display-buffer' and 'scroll-other-window' are also used there to the same
effect in this situation.

The workaround is shown in the emacs.el file, force the other window
scrolling to a *Completions* buffer. But this effectively breaks
other-window scrolling for anything else.
