This bug was fixed on October 31, 2015 with the following commit:

a87c34cb8d58e7019c8d081c02bbac9e93cef8ab

Unfortunately, that commit must have been applied only to the master
branch, as it is not present in the maint branch and thus was not
released as part of org-mode 8.3.4. I'm not sure why that commit was
never merged into maint. I'm flagging this as a bug to ensure that it is
merged.

I think the only solution at the moment would be to upgrade to a more
recent development version either by checkout org out through git or
using elpa:

http://orgmode.org/elpa.html

My workaround is C-o C-f (open-line, forward-char).

I'm using org-plus-contrib from elpa, and still see this bug...

You are right; I spoke too soon. ELPA packages are based on the maint
branch, so installing from ELPA won't help. Until this bug fix makes its
way to maint, the only solution is to use the org repo or to patch the
ELPA download manually.

No big deal! It's mildly annoying, but knowing the fix is on the way is
enough.

Thanks,

I don't remember the details. It probably introduces some subtle
user-visible changes. In any case, I'll cherry-picked it into master.
We'll see.
