Indeed, the tests to flymake-diag-region should be 6-fold though. Two
tests, with and without column indication, where eob is being pointed
to, for each of these buffer fixtures

   w/o trailing newline -> highlight last line of visible chars
   with trailing newline -> highlight last line of visible chars
   with two trailing newlines -> highlight wide last line of whitespace

...but I'm too lazy at this time of night to do the tests, though I
do have the patch I think should fix them :-)

Thanks,
João
