It is possible that with yesterday's CVS snapshot, I did not scroll down far enough to see the effect; but I don't know. In any event, this is a reproduceable oddity.

Thumb shrinks to expected size. Final step of overscrolling: last line to the top. The thumb now covers nearly the entire length of the scrollbar, because the inaccessible portion all of a sudden starts "counting". Does this make sense?
