It talks about resizing the mini-window, the window at the bottom of
the frame where Emacs shows the echo-area and the minibuffer.  So this
is unrelated to maximizing the Emacs frame.

I don't know.  In general, window-vscroll gets reset in many
situations, so what you see is most probably not a bug.
