Comment (by ribbonz):

 update:

 after looking at some more pages from the BeBook, it appears that the
 problem may stem from displaying a vertical scrollbar when it's not
 necessary.

 The 'Introduction' page that never renders incorrectly is also long enough
 (i.e. contains enough lines) that a scrollbar to move up and down the page
 is needed.  But the 'Legal Notice' page, along with the other problem
 pages, is small enough to easily fit in the window, and no scrolling up or
 down is required.

 so maybe the actual bug is the renderer not correctly figuring out (in
 some cases) that a vertical scrollbar isn't needed.
