On a window with header line (package-list-packages), move the
mouse pointer to the line inmediately below the header line. Move the
mouse wheel, and get the message:

<header-line> <mouse-5> is undefined

Also, clickable items on the header line are highlighted as if the mouse
was over them when the mouse is on the line below.

Tested on X11 and win32.

With printf, I got sizes 18 and 233 on X11 and Win32, without any tab bar.

I just did that.
Thank you.
