[24.0.50] end-of-buffer cursor position with an overlay |

Hi,
Emacs 24.0.50 displays end-of-buffer cursor at different position
from where Emacs 23 does when there is an overlay at eob with
before- or after-string.
Emacs 24.0.50:
o $ emacs -Q
Then point is at eob.
o M-: (overlay-put (make-overlay (point) (point)) 'before-string "?")
Then cursor is placed on "?".
(cursor position is indicated with [ and ])
0) [?]
o Typing x (or any other char) twice results in the following
behavior.
1) [?]x 2) ?xx[]
Emacs 24.0.50, point not at eob:
0) ?[] 1) ?x[] 2) ?xx[]
Emacs 23.2, point at eob or not at eob:
0) ?[] 1) ?x[] 2) ?xx[]
So only Emacs 24.0.50 with point at eob displays cursor
differently relative to an overlay placed at eob.

Sorry for such a long delay, but I finally fixed this (in revision
102440).
Thanks for reporting this, and for a detailed test case.
