Dear maintainers,

I'm trying to evaluate the following snippet in emacs -Q, however as
soon as I try to insert a character, the region is not highlighted
anymore. `activate- mark' doesn't make it work either. Whereas
interactively with `exchange-point-and-mark' the region gets proper highlight.

       (progn
         (insert "")
         (push-mark (line-beginning-position) :no-message :activate))

       (progn
         (insert "a")
         (push-mark (line-beginning-position) :no-message :activate))

All the best,
Bruno Boal
