I'm running on both an HP9000s700 and a Sparc with SunOS 4.1.1.

I see the same thing. It also happens in info, mh-e, and other
places where some key is bound to scroll-down. I can't get to the
top of the buffer unless I do a M-<. Annoying.

    David> If all the styles in my mode-line have the same size font as

This seems to be the cause for me as well.

    David> Has anyone else noticed this behavior?  Is there a fix?

I don't know of one, I just wanted to let you know there are others
with the same problem.

Enjoy,
