From emacs -Q:

C-x SPC
mouse-3 on the space after ";; This"
mouse-3 again on the same spot

You're left with just ";; This".  It looks like the region is being
killed as a normal region (between point and mark) instead of as a
rectangle.

By replying to 31240-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org as I'm trying to do right
now.

BTW, did you look into Stefan's pretensions?  In particular his remark

    BTW, your "width" is computed AFAICT as

	(- (overlay-end (car mouse-drag-and-drop-overlays))
	   (overlay-start (car mouse-drag-and-drop-overlays)))

    which is a char-distance and not a column-distance (big difference in
    the presence of TABs and double-width chars).

sounds worthy of examination.
