This does not solve the underlying problem, because the unexpected cursor position can occur even if the affected overlay is not on the first line. > as can be seen from the fprintf output with my test case it starts > looping when I go to the first character and then press left arrow. As you can see, tweaking redisplay can have rather non-trivial effects. > Could you please tell me how then?
