I'm not sure that I'm correct, but as far as I remember, if
you have the source of emacs 21.1.1 it is possible to use
./configure with the option:

--without-toolkit-scroll-bars

and you'll get the old-fashioned scroll bar. Another
suggestion is to disable it at all. Set scroll-bar-mode to nil
and use command scrolling. You'll soon forget about the scroll
bar and how it looks like.

Regards,
luis
