On the System panel of the Advanced preferences, both scrollable windows scroll
at the same time when a tickbox is currently active in one window and you use
the mouse scroll wheel in the other window.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to Edit > Preferences > Advanced > System
2. In one of the two scrollable windows, click on one of the tick boxes
3. Move the mouse to the other scrollable window and use the mouse wheel to
scroll up and down

Actual Results:  Both of the scrollable windows scroll at the same time.


Expected Results:  Only the window under the mouse pointer should scroll. The
window with the active tickbox should not scroll unless the mouse is over that
window.
Yup.  Win98SE bog-standard MS wheelmouse+drivers 0.9.7/2001122106, confirming.

Hmm.  The relevant preferences panel has been amended, and now only one of these
boxes has a scrollbar.  Following the steps to reproduce to attempt to get that
one box to scroll, fails to do so.  So this problem doesn't exist any more (yay!).
