Hello,

I have noticed for a while that with auto-hscroll-mode set to the new value
'current-line, C-a and C-e do not work well with visual-line-mode and
truncation enabled.

I was able to recreate this consistently with this recipe:

1. Evaluate the below in emacs -Q scratch buffer


(defun do-setup ()
  (interactive)
  (setq auto-hscroll-mode 'current-line)
  (visual-line-mode)
  (toggle-truncate-lines 1)
  (end-of-buffer)
  (insert "\n\ndlkasdjf lkdkmnf kd aksdjkldj laksdjflkasdf aldksflakdjf
alksdjldf lksdfjldkj lkjdfad falksdflj asldkfjlasdf fjlaksdjflkj asdf
lasdkfalkds alsdfkj sdf lsdkfj sldkfjlksdjf asldkfjlksdjfowieur nxc"))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c ;") #'do-setup)

2. Hit "C-c ;". That will set minor modes as in the do-setup function in
the scratch buffer and insert that arbitrary text, enough to wrap the lines
(and then show truncated). At this point, the point will be at the end of
the inserted text.

3. Now "C-a" won't work! It will only work after you do C-b at least once.
i.e. C-a does not work is point is at EOL.

4. Now with point at beginning of line after C-a, "C-e" will do something
weird.. it will take the point to the right only as far as shown in this
image (pasted/attached):

But the point will never reach the actual end of the line, no matter how
many times you hit "C-e".
