Start emacs -Q

Visit a file that is larger than a screenful (say etc/NEWS).

M-x set-variable RET scroll-margin RET 3 RET

Move point down the buffer and notice how the window scrolls when
point is three lines from the bottom of the window.

M-x set-variable RET show-trailing-whitespace RET t RET

Move point around and notice that the margin is no longer taken into
account.
