When you remove the current buffer from the selected window,
the buffer that gets displayed in the selected window isn't always
the same as the buffer that gets made the new current buffer.
The command M-x test (see below) manifests the problem
for me from runemacs -Q.
Output on Emacs 23.3:
Current: *Test*<2>; Selected: *Test*<2>; [...]
Current: *Test*<1>; Selected: *Test*<1>; [...]
Output on Emacs bzr trunk:
Current: *Test*<2>; Selected: *Test*<2>; [...]
Current: *Test*<1>; Selected: *scratch*; [...]
(defun test ()
(interactive)
(progn
;; This seems to sow enough confusion.

"Current: %s; Selected: %s; \
type k to kill current buffer, \
any other key to quit"

(kill-buffer))))

The output on Emacs bzr trunk should be
Current: *Test*<2>; Selected: *Test*<2>; [...]
Current: *scratch*; Selected: *scratch*; [...]
because *scratch* was the buffer shown before *Test*<2>*.

The problems happens because `kill-buffer' makes another buffer current
when killing the current buffer and calls `replace-buffer-in-windows'
which ends up calling `switch-to-prev-buffer' for the selected window.
The latter refuses to change the current buffer because the selected
window's buffer is _not_ the current buffer (a behavior needed to make
`switch-to-prev-buffer' work within buffer excursions).
So the solution is to have `kill-buffer' call `replace-buffer-in-windows'
_before_ making another buffer current.
Thanks for the excellent report, martin
