Evaluate the form below, I expect all lines look like "abc".
But some of the lines look like "cycaby".

(let ((buf (generate-new-buffer "tmp")))
  (switch-to-buffer buf)
  (dotimes (i 100)
    (insert (propertize "x" 'display "ab") "y\n"))
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (end-of-line)
  (execute-kbd-macro "\C-b\C-dc\C-n" 100))

That's because current-column returned an incorrect value when display
strings are used.  In the "tmp" buffer, go to the first line, move
cursor to the 'y' character, and type "C-x =" -- you will see that
Emacs thinks this is column 1, not 2.

I've now fixed current-column in this case (on the master branch), so
the above snippet now behaves as expected.
