bug#6002: 23.1.96; bug#2319 still present

[Marco Pessotto]

The bug #2319 which affects the display of the point, is still present
in the latest prerelease

See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2009-02/msg00507.html

To reproduce do:

emacs -Q
ESC-300 _ THERE
C-a 
C-k
C-y (20 times, to get the line *very* long)
M-<
M-% THERE  <enter> here <enter> <space> 

until the curson does not move to the correct point.  "THERE" had 
actually been replace with "here", but the user can't controll the process.

Same problem occours while yanking.

This happens in "the real life" too, with real file with long lines
(not kilobytes in a single line, just paragraphs packed in a single line). 

The same happens when yanking for the 14th time. 

IIRC, this problem was present still in emacs 22 (and probably earlier
releases).

Sorry to continue to bother you with this bug, but it's somehow nasty.

I'm sorry no-one has fixed your issue. But please in general try to
reply to existing bug reports (where applicable) rather than creating
new ones. Thanks.

I tried to reproduce this on Emacs 25, and was unable to.  The cursor
correctly moved to each HERE and replaced it.  I didn't see anything
amiss.  Please let me know if you can reproduce this on Emacs 25, and
I'll re-open.

BTW, sorry, due to an error on my part, I closed this as unreproducible
before I actually looked at it.  But, (luckily?) it does appear
unreproducible for me.
