The current fix didn't touch that case, it only touched the case of

* How to reproduce:

0. Start emacs with `emacs -Q'
1. Create some text composition, e.g. eval: `(insert (compose-chars ?+))'
2. Move cursor to before composed character
3. `M-x delete-forward-char' or press <delete> key

* Backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument sequencep t)

  funcall-interactively(delete-forward-char 1 nil)
