The scrolling only happens for me if I set truncate-lines to a non-nil
value. Is that what you see? Or perhaps you invoke Customize in a
partial-width window, in which case truncate-partial-width-windows is
non-nil by default?
If lines are not truncated, there's no horizontal scrolling.

Does this really work when a window has its lines truncated?
