This behaviour is not related to Win32Lib or any bug...
Microsoft (in their infinite wisdom) decided the messages that indicate
scroll bar position, WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL, are limited to 16 bits
of position data (65535 max). I am not aware of any reliable work
around apart from creating a custom scroll bar control.
