Reviewing the code, it looks like the workhorse of updating everything
is the `buffer_container.current' setter function, called by
`switch_to_buffer' but not called by `bury_buffer'.  It seems like
bury_buffer really ought to be working through that setter rather than
duplicating its work.  However, `current' may need to be altered to
accomodate `bury_buffer'.

David: would you mind looking into this when you have time?
