bug#11496: 24.1.50; Line numbers are not redrawn correctly in linum-mode

[Stefan Monnier]

> Line numbers are redrawn for the entire frame.

> The same thing happens when narrowing on a function and then widen

You may have more luck with my reimplementation of linum which uses
jit-lock, which hopefully fixes those problems (tho it may come with
others of course).
