OK.  I am almost done with a fix.  I still need to finish adjusting the
scrollbar to work with 32-bit values by scaling, and I've got an annoying
little metarecord bug.

We really, really should have had a
  typedef YOffset int16;
in a header file.  Then we could have just changed two characters to fix
this.  This should help teach us the value of using typedef'ed
variables. :-)
