Maybe because taking out window size change notifications from
window-configuration-change-hook is a backward-incompatible change?

Please also answer this question.  I believe this is the crucial question
for this request.

Sorry, actually it works, I missed the logged messages because the content
of the *Messages* buffer is not refreshed to show new logged messages
from the calls of the window-scroll-functions hook such as

  (add-to-list 'window-scroll-functions
               (lambda (window display-start)
                 (message "window-scroll-functions %S %S %S"
                          window (window-buffer window) display-start)))

This means that C-l (recenter-top-bottom) doesn't redisplay the frame -
which is strange since it calls 'recenter' with non-nil arg REDISPLAY.
Only after switching to the *Messages* buffer with 'C-x o' it gets
redisplayed and all previously emitted messages appear in it.
