bug#21523: 25.0.50; Undo with active region adds extra text

The Subject line is not very clear.  Here is a recipe.  You decide
whether the behavior is correct or a bug.  FWIW, this behavior is at
least as old as Emacs 20 (with transient-mark-mode on).

emacs -Q

In buffer *scratch*, put point before "that" on the last line.
`M-c', to capitalize "That".
`C-SPC C-e', to select the text after "That", up to eol.
(The region does not contain the word "That".)

`C-_' to undo the last change within the region.
The word "that" is inserted, giving this:

;; then enter the text in Thatthat file=A1=AFs own buffer.

This seems disconcerting, at least.  (Same behavior for `M-u' etc.)

(I can see the explanation of why this happens coming as a reply.  As I
say, you can decide whether this behavior is OK as is.)
