AFAICS, 1095 and 21722 report exactly the same problem; 21722 should
have never been opened as a separate bug.  So I just merged them
together.

That may be so, but my problem, which _is_ a regression from 24.5, is
that even this part of 1095:

  In "emacs -Q", when I insert into *scratch* the form:

     (progn (end-of-line) (insert "\nhi"))

  then place point on the "g" and press C-M-x C-/, then the insertion is
  undone, and point remains on the "g", as expected.

doesn't work as expected in Emacs 25.  This is a regression I'd like
to fix before 25.1 is released.

And this part of 1095/21722 _is_ solved by Phillip's patch, so I think
we should install it on the release branch.  However, I'd like Stefan
to look over the patch before we install it.
