I once wrote a workaround for a similar problem, see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2008-09/msg00938.html
You could try the patch there (IIRC my basic idea was that Emacs
resamples the actual mouse position whenever it gets a vertical
scrollbar request, so the mouse must be in the window you want to
scroll). If you have any questions please ask.
