Just realised this was triggered by me patching flymake to support
fringe indicator.

OK, I have prepared a test case. It requires python and the package
pyflakes¹ which is used by flymake. Normally one can install pyflakes by
using:
pip install pyflakes
OR
easy_install pyflakes
in a terminal.
Decompress the attached tar ball and go into the directory 11417/ in a
terminal and launch emacs like this:
emacs -nw -q -L . -l bug.el setup.py
You should see a buffer with contents partially displayed. Move around
in that buffer by typing C-v, M-v, C-n or C-p until it freezes (it
usually takes me no more than 3 key strokes).
