Elements no longer displayed after 3 mins when using auto scrolling

Apologies if this issue on Drupal 6.x has been covered elsewhere on Drupal.org - the closest I could find on Drupal was here --> http://drupal.org/node/1104218 which in my judgement was not the same.

The issue is that after about 2 mins 40 seconds (sometimes longer) the element on the right is no longer displayed - to view one of several installations please visit http://www.infrastructurenews.co.nz. To see an example of the issue, see the images below. (We have auto refresh set at 95 seconds, however the issue can be generated after 1 minute by moving the browser window off the screen (releasing it) then back into view repeatedly. (Hope that makes sense). After about 10 minutes all elements are not displayed.

External to Drupal.org is the following:
https://github.com/jsor/jcarousel/issues/180 (however it's appropriate to log this issue properly on the Drupal.org and leave the issue open until fixed).
Here's what is said:

There are issues with wrap: circular. It sinply doesn't work correctly at the moment. Thats one reason why i'm rewriting jCarousel in the 0.3 branch.

I'm wondering if anyone can confirm that to fix it as part of the 0.3 branch is still the plan? (The above was written back in May 2011).

Also: http://aaronfay.ca/content/post/jquery-jcarousel-circular-wrap-and-auto-... which appears to be a fix - though we are uncertain how to apply the fix. (The fix doesn't mention what file needs the code added to or where in the code to add it (suggestions are welcome).

The workaround at the moment used is that we auto refresh the pages that have the module - however that is only a temporary fix as it may frustrate a minority of readers of the page as it will refresh in the middle of them reading something on the page.

Appreciate any help.
