I pushed this change into the git repo, so I expect this issue is fixed.

I at last succeeded to reproduce this issue. It turned out that C-c C-o
C-b doesn't reproduce it, but C-c C-o C-m on the \textit does. It seems
that it results from complex interactions within emacs display engine,
and not easy to fix. Maybe I look into this again some day.
