Appears to be a bug in the scroll handling (one of several...).
A quick test shows display line 100,000 then immediately reposition
itself. You can get some additional mileage by tampering with:
    setScrollRange(MAIN, 1, 65535)
in editor.exw. This should be overridden with the value of max passed
to the hacked setBuiltInScrollRange, but apparently isn't. I shall
have a look at this when time permits.

Actually, can this wait until the next release of win32lib or is it
delaying you? I was intending to wait for the new win32lib which
promises much improved/simplfied scroll handling before messing any
more with this. Alternatively, I think if I just optionally disable
the horizontal scroll bar, in the same way I do the horizontal, it
should stop this happening, as a stopgap measure.
