Sorry for not being clear. Here is a recipe:
1. Launch with "emacs -Q".
2. Switch to the scratch buffer.
3. Copy the following into the buffer and evaluate each expression:
(setq-default left-fringe-width 0)
(setq-default left-margin-width 1)
(setq overlay-arrow-string
(propertize ">" 'display `((margin left-margin)
,(propertize ">" 'face 'default))))
4. Invoke "M-x occur", and enter "setq" when prompted for a regexp.
5. Switch to the Occur buffer and move between the matches by pressing "n"
and "p".
Expected behavior: Indicator arrow ">" appears in the margin.
Current behavior: Indicator arrow ">" appears in the buffer.
6 (extra). Evaluate the following expression:
(setq overlay-arrow-string (propertize ">" 'face 'shadow))
Unlike the display property, the face property does get applied and the
appearance of the arrow in the Occur buffer changes.
