Here is what is CLAIMED to happen with bury-buffer:
When you use bury-buffer to bury the buffer in the selected window,
the NEXT buffer to be shown in the selected window is chosen with a
preference to show a buffer which has previously been shown in a
window.
What I see in the code of Fother_buffer is that it prefers the buffers
that have been shown in this frame before. However, burying a buffer
removes it from the frame's buffer list (this is a recent bug fix).
So as you cycle in this way, the frame's buffer list will empty out
and you will indeed get all the non-hidden buffers.
- doing bury-buffer once will bury xyz and show *scratch*, and
- doing bury-buffer again will bury *scratch* and show xyz.
I get *Messages* the third time now.
