Have you checked the size of the virtual window that is being
scrolled? The win32 backend can't do virtual windows larger than 65k
pixels in either (or both) dimensions. I have this problem too on
large image zooms.

I think the only known solution is to not use scrolledwindow and to do
the clipping / panning yourself :-( Just attach two scrollbars and a
lot of callbacks to a small drawingarea.
