bug#52128: 29.0.50; column-number-mode causes point to jump around

[Joseph Mingrone]

If emacs is started with:

emacs -nw -q -l /home/jrm/.emacs.d/custom-lite.el blah

with custom-lite.el only containing

(custom-set-variables
  '(column-number-mode t))

Then typing characters will cause the point to move around in unexpected
ways.  For example, when typing

12345678

into the scratch buffer, after the 8 in entered, the point is moved back
to the second column (over the 3).
