bug#35659: 26.1; Weird horizontal scroll behavior with certain settings for `auto-hscroll-mode' and `hscroll-step`.

Thank you for looking into it again! I think you haven't looked closely enough:
This is not the behavior you get with auto-hscroll-mode set to t.

No, because I would like hscroll-step to be set to 1. But doing that
will lead to the described pushing of lines over the screen (which is what you want
if the lines exceed the window width but not if they are shorter than the window-width!)

I would flag it as a bug because it does not happen with 
hscroll-step set to 0 (the default).

If you don't want to touch that code, I as a newbie won't dare to touch it either ;)
