CVS checkin with longlines mode

When editing a CVS-controlled file in Outline-mode with longlines switched on, the hard line-breaks are somehow destroyed as soon as the file is committed to CVS. After committing, the buffer is re- filled, with most linebreaks gone. I noticed that line-breaks go away after long lines, but

Carbon: scrollbar in wrong position

This occurs reproducibly right after visiting a file (in a new buffer, i.e. find-file-other-frame) - see the first screenshot. At the same time, the slider occurs in the right position up on the scrollbar. The situation persists until the relevant portion of the window is redrawn. (The

frame-local variables / parameters not set by make-frame

`make-frame' takes an argument with a list of parameters to create the frame with. However, non-standard frame parameters don't seem to be set, even when declared with `make-variable-frame-local'. That's a bit odd. I would expect `make-frame' to set all parameters, whether they are standard

select-window (C-c M-j) doesn't give input focus to target (*R*) [Carbon GNU Emacs]

I understand that, in ESS-mode, C-c M-j (and friends) are supposed to select the *R* window and the buffer shown therein, so the input focus is in that window in the end. ESS selects the appropriate frame (`select-frame') and window (`select-window') to do so in the function
