Not sure what you mean by "the current buffer" above, but I suspect you
mean "the buffer that I visually see as being the current one"
(i.e. that corresponds to the buffer of the window that was selected at
the time the display is refreshed).
This is not the definition of `current-buffer`, although the two are
tightly linked in practice by the fact that `current-buffer` is set to
the buffer of the window that is selected at the time a user causes
a command to be run.
