Yes, that's what I was guessing anyway.

Let me try that. What I did :
1. run under gdb
2. follow the recipe up to the point where I type "C-h f if", but don't
   hit RET
3. then go to gdb window
4. hit C-z to put a breakpoint in adjust_point_for_property
5. continue
6. go back to emacs and hit RET

Now back to gdb :
(gdb) p XBUFFER(XWINDOW(selected_window)->contents)->name_
$1 = 143880388
(gdb) xpr
Lisp_String
$2 = (struct Lisp_String *) 0x89370c0
"*Help*"
(gdb) p current_buffer->name_
$3 = 139646148
(gdb) xpr
Lisp_String
$4 = (struct Lisp_String *) 0x852d4c0
"*Messages*"
(gdb) p PT
$5 = 10067
(gdb) p Fwindow_point (selected_window)
$6 = 6

In command_loop_1 ?

I can more or less follow the code step by step, but I don't really
understand it. The only thing I'm now almost 100% confident is that in
this call (found in adjust_point_for_property) :
  get_char_property_and_overlay
      (make_number (PT), Qdisplay, selected_window,
       &overlay))
PT refers to current_buffer, which is different from the buffer in
selected_window in the situation I encountered.

Thanks. This works for me, but is it TRT ?
