This is a red herring.  The values I print can't be attributed to a
specific "failing" instance of `forward-line'.  What you see is the
readjusted value after scrolling was wrongly dismissed in the last
round.  With `before' and `after' around the `forward-line' call I get:

before 97
after 102
before 102
after 107
before 107
after 112
before 112
after 117
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122
before 117
after 122

So `forward-line' always skips five characters but point gets reset
later on.

That's precisely what I did.
