Emacs hangs when follow-mode is used with three vertically split windows
and the buffer/window text is scrolled. The "hang" means that Emacs
stops responding and takes nearly all the CPU time.
Steps to reproduce:
$ emacs -Q
C-h r (Emacs manual)
C-x 3
C-x 3
C-x +
M-x follow-mode RET
Now press C-n (next-line) down and keep it down. The cursor moves and
the buffer text scrolls but at some point Emacs just hangs.
This is always reproducible with my Emacs 22.2.1 (Debian package) and
Emacs 23 (http://emacs.orebokech.com/).

Alas, Follow mode is not well-maintained, and does not handle
variable-height text terribly well. I've checked in several fixes to
prevent this and some other related bugs. The hang should be resolved
now. Thanks for the report.
