I'm seeing this in a bare session on a variety of binary files.  I
load the file in fundamental mode (looks as if I wasn't clear on this
bit!)  scroll down a couple of times, then the next-line's and then
scroll up. Get the error every time

Tried my company's propriety file type, jpg and bmp files.

I can repeat it on
"GNU Emacs 20.7.1 (i386-mandrake-linux-gnu, X toolkit)
 of Mon Oct  2 2000 on debris.mandrakesoft.com"
and on the ntemacs 20.7.1

"GNU Emacs 20.7.1 (i386-mandrake-linux-gnu, X toolkit)

C-h l:
