This (and I guess the variants that others
proposed) has a bug when point is at bol, the
region is empty, and `use-empty-active-region'
is non-nil. In that case it raises an error
saying that "start > end" (which is not a very
clear error message in general, BTW).
This code seems to DTRT:
(progn (goto-char end)
(when (and (bolp) (> end beg))
(backward-char))
(line-end-position))
[Non-nil option `use-empty-active-region' is
a pesky use case. A guess is that there are
other, similar bugs lurking in Emacs. I
wonder how many times we actually test for
that use case when we use `use-region-p'.]
