I stepped through next-line and subroutines via edebug and landed via line-move-visual on:

(vertical-motion  (cons (or goal-column
				     (if (consp temporary-goal-column)
					 (car temporary-goal-column)
				       temporary-goal-column))
				 arg))

So vertical-motion is where all fingers point.

I agree with that, but unfortunately am not setup for it here and have next to no familiarity with Emacs’ C code.  I’m sorry I can’t be of more help.  But similar to how you were unable to work with dvisvgm and other packages, I don’t have access to gdb, as it is not supported on my architecture.
