Public bug reported:

I use emacsclient for most of my editing. Emacsclient is invoked with
"emacsclient.emacs23 -a "" -c filename", which first starts the emacs
server if one is not already running, and then creates a new frame with
the buffer containing contents of the "filename".

I expected to always see the scrollbar thumb in the emacsclient frame.
However the actual behavior is as described below.

For the very first time, when the emacs server is started (emacs
--daemon) by emacsclient, the scrollbar thumb appears normal in the
emacsclient window frame. If I close this frame with "C-C #" and open
new one with the same command ("emacsclient.emacs23 -a "" -c filename"),
the scrollbar does not show the thumb. Scrolling does work though. If I
kill emacsclient and emacs and redo the process, I see the exact same
behavior.

Same behavior is observed if I manually start the emacs server by
invoking "emacs --daemon" from bash.

In my .emacs I do not have any specific configuration either for
scrollbars or for windows/frames. I am not sure what would cause this.
Any input is appreciated! Thanks.
