I properly bisected commits for the month of May and it gives

  commit d090be146176e9acee89fdaadc86e2eb26209ef5
  Author: Stefan Monnier <monnier <at> iro.umontreal.ca>

  Change inhibit-point-motion-hooks to t

  * src/textprop.c (syms_of_textprop): Default Vinhibit_point_motion_hooks
  to t and document it as obsolete.


Indeed, with the following definition (where both the `intangible' text
property and the use of `inhibit-point-motion-hooks' are deprecated now)
point is placed on the "f" of "fringe" (not on the "d" of "dummy"), and
so M-: (backward-char) works.

(defun insert-with-fringe ()
  (interactive)
  (let (inhibit-point-motion-hooks)
    (insert
     "      "
     (concat
      (propertize "fringe" 'display (list 'left-fringe 'filled-square font-lock-doc-face)
		  'intangible 'test)
      (propertize "dummy\n" 'display "AAA\n" 'font-lock-face font-lock-doc-face
		  'intangible 'test))
     "some more text")
    (previous-line)))


Of course, this is not really the original subject of this bug report,
I think...
