I can’t replicate this. It *should* be fixed. Can you confirm whether
it’s still an issue in Emacs 26?

The screenshot was trying to indicate an issue with Keith’s
modifications where it was putting the cursor into the fringe one
character too early. I was using a 2 pixel wide bar cursor, which
probably didn’t help. You can see the cursor is placed underneath the
fringe arrow; it should be on the left of the last x on the line.

Keith has raised a new bug report for his patch (29233) so further
discussion of it should probably continue there.
