[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

In the last weeks a new issue crept up in the display engine. Some
visual garbage is drawn at the horizontal lower/upper edge when using
hl-line-mode, on the region, or anything that redraws the current visual
line to fill the background.

See the attached screenshot, captured with emacs -Q on the current
master, with the lucid toolkit.

Evaluate the test file, then move the pointer down one line at a time,
until garbage is visible.

Changing the font weight seems necessary to trigger this issue, as well
some hidden properties in the line. I wasn't able to reproduce it easily
otherwise.

This seems to have been introduced around commit
d546be31a9320d94769cb322f008f49d08d852a8 ("Fix display of
mouse-highlight produced by overlapping overlays") or earlier.

If the exact commit would be helpful, I can try to pinpoint it.
