'window--display-buffer' resets that window's previous buffers here

    (when (memq type '(window frame tab))
      (set-window-prev-buffers window nil))

In the "window" and "frame" case these are actually not needed because
when making a new window (on the same or a new frame), that window's
previous buffers are automatically set to nil - by make_window in the
release version and by the allocation routine with my patch.  I reset
them just to make sure.  When you show *info* in an already existing
window, that window's previous buffers are not reset.  So the presence
of "tab" in the form above is not entirely correct in this regard.

In 'quit-restore-window' you count the windows with a 'quit-restore'
parameter.  In the scenario at hand this gives 2 so you don't close the
tab.  If you told me in detail what this counting is supposed to
accomplish, I might be able to help you.
