I honestly don't know. At a guess, I'd say several rather than many.
As a quick benchmark, there are 127 occurrences of set-window-start in
our lisp sources, in 59 files.

I hadn't actually thought of that. Thinking about set-window-start
(rather than simply window-start), there will be lots of places where a
mode is explicitly handling its own windows (? speedbar.el, for example),
and set-window*-start would be the wrong thing. But there are also
surely examples where set-window-start is currently used just to scroll
the text to a specific position. Here set-window*-start would be
better.
