Yeah, it looks like there is some sort of infinite-loop conflict with the hidden scrollbars (see stack below)... I saw the problem in the latest 3.0 with hidden scrollbars turned on.

Interestingly, I noticed that with 3.0, the alt-. works, but in 2.9a-3278 it doesn't.  Also, having only inboard scrollbars on (but not hidden scrollbars) in 2.9a causes a problem, but seems to work okay in 3.0.  Weird.

Since I wrote the hidden scrollbars stuff, I could try to look at it tonight, if no one else figures it out before then.
