In any case, the potential for problems is still there, because now
w->base_line_pos gets reset to zero in many more places than it was
before.  Previously, only xdisp.c would manipulate this attribute in a
few well-defined places.  Now it can be reset by any function that
calls adjust_window_count, including wset_buffer, which is called from
many primitives, most of them outside xdisp.c.  Therefore, it's quite
possible that we will now have to count from the beginning of the
buffer much more frequently than we did before.  In large buffers,
this could be quite a hit.

Hm. I'll try to reproduce such a situation and check what happens.
Maybe we should invalidate window_end_valid and base_line_pos only
if either window is really switched to another buffer or buffer
is changed.

That'd be hard, because there are many places that switch to another
buffer temporarily, and they all call adjust_window_count.

What about this?
