The following patch fixes this problem for me. One remaining issue is
that overlays for line numbers inherit text properties. For example:

   $ emacs -Q -f fundamental-mode -f linum-mode

   M-o u

then insert anything, and the line number is also underlined. How to
best fix this? Maybe overlays should not inherit properties if they only
affect the display margins.

	* linum.el (linum-delay): Disable - it should no longer be
	necessary, and can lead to longer delays.
	(linum-update-window): Renumber if margin width has changed.
