CFLAGS="-g -O2 -fno-optimize-sibling-calls" ./configure
--without-toolkit-scroll-bars --with-x --without-kerberos
--prefix=$HOME/usr
Now (scroll-bar-mode 0) returns nil and the scroll bars are still
there. Ugly ones at that! Attached is a screenshot.
What did I do wrong?

"With a numeric argument, if the argument is positive
turn on scroll bars; otherwise turn off scroll bars."
So try -1.
If you tell configure --without-toolkit-scroll-bars those are the scrollbars
you get, this hasn't changed in ages. What did you expect?

-1 did not do the trick either. (And 0 is not a positive number.)

What I expect to happen when I turn off scroll-bar-mode I expect no
scroll bars at all. I don't see how --without-toolkit-scroll-bars
would imply that I get scroll bars no matter what.
It seems that toggle-scroll-bar manages to turn off the scroll bars
for the current frame.

So there is a documentation error in define-minor-mode.

Is there? Please be specific. Which part of the doc is erroneous, and how?
I just looked at the doc for `define-minor-mode', both the Elisp manual and the
doc string. I do not see where it suggests that 0 is a positive number - or
anything like that. Rather than expecting people to spend time searching for
what you might mean, please point specifically to the problem text. Thx.

Ah, you are right. define-minor-mode does not add this part of the doc
string (yet).
I suggested that it should but we have not made that change yet.

I don't think there is. I use 0 as the argument for
transient-mark-mode, scroll-bar-mode, menu-bar-mode, tool-bar-mode,
fringe-mode, blink-cursor-mode and global-visual-line-mode. All of
these work fine with the argument 0 (except for scroll-bar-mode with
these configure flags).

Then there is a bug somewhere. Can you file a bug report?

I was commenting the "Ugly ones at that". It implied you somehow expected
pretty ones.

I'll file a bug once I make sure there is one. A private e-mail I
received just now suggests that I may have to re-bootstrap.

It seems a distclean and a bootstrap fixed the issue. Sorry about the fuss.
