Not on the master branch itself, I have to change the "5000" to "50000"
in the marker code, which I don't think should cause this assertion
violation.  The reproducer script is the magit.bash script Helmut
provided, this patch, and hitting C-p C-p C-n C-n when the magit window
opens.

The character isn't composed, is it? It's a plain newline.

Will do, if we need to fix this at all.

I was looking for fetch_char_and_length, but I guess
string_char_and_length (BYTE_POS_ADDR (pos_byte), &it->len) works, too?

I'll try reducing the patch to just the 5000 -> 50000 thing next.
