Thanks for pointing this out.  I checked in a change to enforce a 
minimum chart size, so it will just overdraw the current buffer.

I haven't tried devising a strategy for my CEDET to override the CEDET 
in the latest Emacs with the integrated CEDET.  If my standard install 
instructions somehow work, and this is the only issue, then that's great.

The solution to the above is to hack is at the very end of 
wisent-javascript to add yet another hook to whatever this js-mode uses 
to as a mode hook.  If you know what that is, then that should get 
checked in.

Thanks!
