Right.  And if your Emacs is built with --enable-checking (which is
something I advise for the first couple of pretest of a new release),
you might be able to trigger an assertion violation by repeating the
above recipe several times.

Actually, the numbers have been recomputed, as you see them change on
display.  They just were recomputed incorrectly: the logic related to
widening failed to catch the first redisplay cycle after 'widen',
which is special.  (In general, line numbers are computed as part of
displaying a window, so whenever you see redisplay, you know the line
numbers were recomputed, at least for some lines.)

Should be fixed now.  Thanks for reporting this.
