I tried to make a simple test case, but I think I still don't understand
exactly what to do.  I started my Athena build, in order to circumvent
GTK+ interference with Emacs redisplay, under gdb with -Q, set a
breakpoint at Fdelete_other_windows_internal, in Emacs switched to a new
buffer, typed "test" at line 1, column 0 and then M-: (put-text-property
(point-min) (point-max) 'mouse-face 'highlight).  Then I typed C-x 2,
put the mouse over the word "test", highlighting it, typed C-x 1 and
proceeded in gdb thus:

3631                int vpos = MATRIX_ROW_VPOS (row, desired_matrix);

3667                if (MATRIX_ROW_BOTTOM_Y (row) >= yb)
(gdb) p mouse_face_overwritten_p
$11 = 0

At this point (vpos = 1) aren't we past the highlighted text?  Yet
nothing has changed.  What I am doing wrong?
