Fixed in revision 116843 on the emacs-24 branch.

Note that moving cursor to the "f" of "file" from the left will get
you to position 8, while moving there from the right will get you to
position 10.  But this is a separate "feature".

Also note that this situation is one of the small number where
visual-order-cursor-movement works differently from the default
logical-order one, even though there's no bidirectional context
anywhere in sight.  And that is also a feature.

Thanks.
