There is a test case in this message:

  http://www.nabble.com/anomalies-of-overlays-and-before-string-and-display-properties-p12777475.html

The message at that URL has a single test case that demonstrates
several bugs.  Bugs #3 and #4 in that message are the same as the bug
I am mentioning in the quoted message above.  I haven't had time to
prepare a test case that isolates this bug all on its own.

By the way, I think bug #2 in the message at the above URL has been
fixed (or partially fixed), but all the other bugs I think have been
left untouched.
