* bug#21722: 25.0.50; Unexpected point position after undo

In "emacs -Q", when I insert into *scratch* the form:

   (progn (end-of-line) (insert "\nhi"))

then place point on the "g" and press C-M-x C-/, then the insertion is
undone, and point remains on the "g", as expected. When I then press:

   C-h f C-g C-M-x C-/

the insertion is undone, and point is unexpectedly placed at the end of
the form instead of remaining on the "g". When I then place point on the
"g" again, and again press C-M-x C-/, point again stays on the "g".

Thus, point position after undo is sometimes unexpected.

For comparison: In Emacs 22.2, point remains on the "g" in all these
cases. This is more consistent, and, in my view, therefore preferable.


In GNU Emacs 25.0.50.5 (x86_64-apple-darwin14.1.0, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)

I think the reason for this problem is in keyboard.c.  C-g causes us
to throw to top-level right after reading the key, and the
undo-related variables are set up in the command loop after that.  I
guess something in this sequence interferes with recording of point
position.

In 25.1-rc1 the point position stays in place for both cases.  So I
guess this can be considered fixed?

(In 25.0.93 (which I happened to have lying around), it moves in both
cases)

Yes, this is fixed. Phillip Lord corrected this in #23871, thank you!

All the best,
Markus

Sorry, think I just forgot to close this one. Thanks for checking.
