Although I could not test for debian, I was able to observe the bug on
cygwin with a newer emacs:
$ emacs --version
GNU Emacs 23.3.1
...
$ cat .emacs
;(setq line-number-display-limit-width 8600000)
;(setq line-number-display-limit-width 8550000)
If exactly the upper line is uncommented, the bug is triggered on
loading a large file, making font size 6, perssing Ctrl-1 to remove the
second part of the window with the welcome screen, and pressing PgDn to
scroll down the large file.
If exactly the lower line is uncommented, the bug is not triggered on
this operation.
Which suggest a workaround, though not a bug fix.
As soon as I will be able to test a newer emacs on debian, I'll report
here.
Cheers!
Jaakov.
