Subject: bug#4803: Undo fails to restore marker position correctly
Date: Sat, 24 Oct 2009 17:18:48 -0700

In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.16.6)
  of 2009-10-17


Steps to reproduce:
-------------------
(switch-to-buffer "*scratch*")  ; any buffer containing some text will do
(setq mrk (make-marker))
(move-marker mrk 5)             ; any position within text will do
(set-marker-insertion-type mrk t)
(delete-region 1 10)
(undo)

Marker mrk is now at position 15 in *scratch* instead of 5.
