[emacs 21.2.1 on Win2k]

I have the same problem in my Emacs (21.2.1) on Windows 98.  Unlike the Unix 
versions I use, the vertical scroll bar doesn't dynamically resize as I 
scroll.  So it is often the case that I cannot scroll to the bottom of the 
buffer.

To see this behavior, just open an emacs window and type:  ESC 3 0 0 RET H I
Scroll to the top however you want, and then try to scroll down by dragging 
the scroll bar.

I'm gonna try looking through the source to try and find a fix/workaround.
If anybody has any pointers, that'd be wonderful.

Here's the bug report stuff:
