I was being obtuse.  This is not good.  Argh.  It is so easy to hide
one's own ignorance behind some mists of vagueness.

"Normal" copies should preserve the text properties, I think.  So
maybe something in occur mode is overwriting them afterwards, or occur
mode uses buffer-substring-no-properties to strip them.

Or is a yank handler stripping them?  It's unlikely for yanking to
happen, though.

I *should* be looking at the source code myself :-|
