1) Turn transient-mark-mode on.

2) Place text large enough to be scrollable in a buffer (select
   Help News from the menu).

3) Make the vertical scrollbar visible if it isn't.

4) Select text on a line (triple click on the first line).

5) Use the scrollbar (click and hold the middle mouse button on
   the scrollbar while moving the mouse).


Notice that the highlighted region differs from that initially
selected.  Lines not initially highlighted are now.  Pasting or
yanking the text buffer gives what was initially selected.  This
is a visual bug.
