bug#36283: 27.0.50; hl-line-mode updates the wrong window after clone-indirect-buffer

[Matthew Newton <matt@knosis.org>]

In GUI Emacs on MacOS:

emacs -Q
M-x hl-line-mode
C-p
M-x clone-indirect-buffer
C-p

The highlighted line moves in the inactive window and does not move in the active window.

I tested this on Emacs 24.5 from https://emacsformacosx.com/ so it doesn’t appear to be recent or specific to my build.

Note that if global-hl-line-mode is active, it works as expected, highlighting the line in the active window. 

Many thanks,
Matt
